Currently, I am in the process of setting up a gitlab ci/cd pipeline for a vuejs application. The Gitlab runner has been provisioned using the Gitlab operator within an Openshift environment. In order to get a docker image of the application, I am utilizing the buildah tool to construct the docker image from the vuejs application.
After installing buildah on the Gitlab runner and ensuring it can access the Dockerfile from the parent directory, issues arise when the runner encounters the npm install command within the Dockerfile, resulting in the following error. Attempts have been made to add config.toml files and increase memory allocated to the runner, but so far no solutions have been successful.
