Describe the bug

we have a CRA app, it used to build with Node 14.x very fine, today I upgrade nodejs to 17.0.0 and it failed. (in both my local machine and the CI-CD machine)

And these were the logs:

Did you try recovering your dependencies?

yes. in both local machine and CI-CD machine I re-installed all the dependencies

Which terms did you search for in User Guide?

I searched Google for error:0308010C:digital envelope routines::unsupported with and without the 0308010C part

Environment

current version of create-react-app: 4.0.3
  running from /home/.npm/_npx/34113/lib/node_modules/create-react-app

  System:
    OS: Linux 5.13 Ubuntu 21.10 21.10 (Impish Indri)
    CPU: (4) x64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4460  CPU @ 3.20GHz
  Binaries:
    Node: 17.0.0 - /usr/bin/node
    Yarn: Not Found
    npm: 8.1.0 - /usr/bin/npm
  Browsers:
    Chrome: 95.0.4638.54
    Firefox: 93.0
  npmPackages:
    react: ^16.13.1 => 16.13.1 
    react-dom: ^16.13.1 => 16.13.1 
    react-scripts: ^4.0.3 => 4.0.3 
  npmGlobalPackages:
    create-react-app: Not Found

Steps to reproduce

(Write your steps here:)

create new react app with create-react-app and node 14
do npm run build to see it builds completely fine
upgrade to node 17 and do npm run build again to see it fail

Expected behavior

to build flawlessly

Actual behavior

The build failed with errors printed above!

Note

I know that it is mostly not related to create-react-app, but another package, maybe webpack or it's dependencies. But as I cannot dig down, I write this issue here so the professionals can track it further.

Thanks

This looks like a relevant discussion related to this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69394632/webpack-build-failing-with-err-ossl-evp-unsupported

Having the same issue. Node 16.11.1 works but 17.0.0 and 17.0.1 are causing this error.

Oct 20 '21 20:10 niels-bosman

Yes @Gnito that's it I think. So it is probably either Webpack's to update something, or react-scripts' to change some config, right?

Oct 20 '21 22:10 aghArdeshir

in your package.json: change this line "build": "react-scripts start", to "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build",

Oct 22 '21 06:10 trashcoder

in your package.json: change this line "build": "react-scripts start", to "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build",

Doing this results in a bad option: --openssl-legacy-provider error in Node 16. So this isn't a workaround projects can actually use in their scripts unless they have absolute control over the version of Node everyone uses and can prohibit use of LTS versions by anyone.

The only real fix will likely be the release of CRA v5.

Oct 25 '21 22:10 dantman

The only real fix will likely be the release of CRA v5.

Actually it seems that this won't necessarily fix the issue alone. WebPack does plan to change the default hash function in WebPack 6 but cannot change it in 4 or 5.

CRA needs to change the hashFunction and make a release. Though given CRA v4 hasn't received an update since Feb and CRA has other issues with Node 17 (#11565) I presume we'll only get that fix in CRA v5,

Oct 26 '21 01:10 dantman

Could be fixed by #11597

Nov 01 '21 14:11 niels-bosman

Merged #11597 just before, and currently testing on local computer.

Nov 01 '21 22:11 HADMARINE

I tested out the @next version of CRA v5. It seems there may be some more work required in order to make Node 17 work.

I'm still getting this error but now it's due to CRA v5 still using file-loader. The implication in the WebPack thread on Node 17 is that file-loader is obsolete and the fix to file-loader breaking Node 17 is to not use file-loader because it's no longer supported.

We may need #11213 before CRA v5 will work on Node 17.

Nov 08 '21 23:11 dantman

On MBP w/M1, running Node v17, to run React with npm start I had to change my start script to "start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start". But when I try to run npm run deploy, it reads "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/nvm/0.38.0/versions/node/v16.13.0/bin/node: bad option: --openssl-legacy-provider"

I tried "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build" and it does not work. Switched to Node v16.13.0 and it works as it came upon initialization.

"start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start", "build": "react-scripts build",

Pretty annoying, but hey, I've heard things change all the change in this industry and a few months from now, someone will see this comment and things will be different then as well.

If you need to support both 17 and older NodeJS versions you can use if-node-version to execute different commands for different NodeJS versions:

{
    "scripts": {
        "build": "if-node-version '>= 17' && react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build || react-scripts build",
    }
}

Looks like this has been fixed.

It work Thanks.

"scripts": { "start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start", "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build", "test": "react-scripts test", "eject": "react-scripts eject" },

Oct 30 '22 16:10 patbi

why not to pass to webpack config to use some modern hash function instead of deprecated md4 https://webpack.js.org/configuration/output/#outputhashfunction ?

Nov 08 '22 09:11 linux019

CRA is now a tech debt.

Feb 20 '23 07:02 aprilmintacpineda

It work Thanks.

"scripts": { "start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start", "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build", "test": "react-scripts test", "eject": "react-scripts eject" },

Thanks Pat! That worked for me also.

for react-app-rewired use it like this "start": "react-app-rewired --openssl-legacy-provider start ",

Hell

Sep 13 '23 18:09 Palinan1985

I had the same issue with Node v18.13.0
Fix step:
install nvm upgrade node version to 20.3.0 via cmd nvm install v20.0.3 do npm -v must be 9.6.7

Test again npm run build
