Cannot build in devcontainer

[fgreinacher]

Describe the bug

When opening this repository in a devcontainer config, e.g. in GitHub Codespaces yarn install fails due to missing permissions for /tmp. To me it looks like /tmp has incorrect permissions for the non-root user:

Have you created a minimal reproduction repository?

No reproduction repository, but here are the steps:

1. Create a new codespace for this repository:
2. Wait for the codespace to open.
3. Switch to the Terminal panel and run yarn install:

Can you describe the exact steps to reproduce?

Sure, added repro steps to the description!

Removing bug label, as this isn't a renovate bug, it's just a developper issue 🙃

BTW: I see a bug, the v prefix for node versaion shouldn't be there 😕

[rarkins]

Reproduced, I think:

Strange, we never change permissions on /tmp 🤔

[viceice]

maybe we need a new WORKDIR docker directive?

[rarkins]

Vanilla buildpack works:

❯ docker run --rm -it containerbase/node:v14.18.1@sha256:b720748f7a35570e402a8741f37a5bd54ad485dd6b4aeaff04027ad761b1306d /bin/bash

user@a2a50855ac9d:/$

codespaces does not:

user@codespaces_0f8274:~$ mkdir '/tmp/yarn--1634201606305-0.5943433528827595'
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/tmp/yarn--1634201606305-0.5943433528827595’: Permission denied

[rarkins]

Shall we try #12165 ?

[rarkins]

Reopening, because I restated my codespaces and still get this:

[rarkins]

This seems to be a workaround:

user@codespaces_fcf2a4:/workspaces/renovate$ mkdir /workspaces/tmp
user@codespaces_fcf2a4:/workspaces/renovate$ export TMPDIR=/workspaces/tmp

On a related note, I always see this:

And clicking in EITHER button is a bad idea:

• Retry restarts my codespaces and returns me to Renovate, but doesn't fix it
• Exit restarts my codespaces and leaves me with no repo

@JamieMagee can you be our hero here? :)

[JamieMagee]

Sure, I can take a look.

We probably need to set a non-root user for the devcontainer.

We are a non root user user (1000).

[JamieMagee]

True, but there's a couple of relateddevcontainer.json settings https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/devcontainerjson-reference

It does say it reads the last USER command from the Dockerfile but... 🤷

[fgreinacher]

Permissions for /tmp are the same, but the yarn-- directories are owned by node instead of root:

$TMPDIR is not set:

One difference I noticed: The user In the containerbase/node image has gid 0, the user in the default image gid 1000.

There is so much more going on in the default image that I'm wondering why not just switch (back) to it?

[viceice]

so the problem seems to be the root group permissions on tmp 😕 We need this for openstack compabillity.

[rarkins]

@viceice can you elaborate? What do we set them to and does codespaces change it? Can we alternatively create our own tmp to use instead, Eg /usr/src/tmp ? (Note: lots of our docs may need to change..)

[fgreinacher]

@viceice @rarkins Can I do anything to bring this forward? I'd really like to have devcontainer support back 😀

[rarkins]

I'm ok with using one of the default containers if we can't get our own working yet

[viceice]

Let me try to fix it tomorrow.

[viceice]

This should fix the issue

• chore(deps): update ghcr.io/containerbase/buildpack docker tag to v2 containerbase/node#5

Works like a charm, thanks for taking care @viceice! I was too quick with this, error still seems to be there.

While yarn install does not fail, very similar messages still show up as warnings, and a subsequent yarn test fails with permission errors.

Shall we switch back to the standard image? mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/typescript-node:14 or one of the other tags¹

I've used that as a workaround in the past. @rarkins @viceice Should I send a PR or do you want to try something else?

[viceice]

No, i think I'll try to find a fix

[fgreinacher]

@viceice Sorry to ping you here all the time but this really bugs me every time I want to do a smaller contribution. What do you think about moving to the standard image suggested by @JamieMagee until the issue in containerbase/node is fixed?

[viceice]

ok, will look at it now

[viceice]

Getting a different error on windows 😕

edit: local renovate folder is mounted as root. So we maybe need to run the container as root too?

[viceice]

🤔 Running from wsl filesystem in container works for me.

[viceice]

So my summary is, because our user is a member of root group we dont have access to /tmp somehow, at least on codespaces

drwxr-xrwt+   2 root root 4096 Oct 14 08:49 tmp

That why we switch to root user for now until we find a better solution. see #14652
