• What happened?
  Please see: Zip deploy fails randomly on node_modules files for Linux web app projectkudu/kudu#2946
  Well this is not randomly. This bug always occurs when I deploy.

I think that this is caused by making symbolic link to /node_modules that I suggested in another issue.

• What did you expect or want to happen?

The deployment should be correctly executed.

• How can we reproduce it?

Well I think that you can hack into my app service.

• Do you have log output? Please include between the backticks:
