Cannot install grpc-tools js package on ubuntu 18.04 with npm
Problem description
I am trying to install grpc-tools package on ubuntu 18.04 with npm. But an error arises. On ubuntu 20.04 everything is ok. How to install it on ubuntu 18.04?
Reproduction steps
I have Dockerfile:
FROM ubuntu:18.04
RUN apt update && apt install -y --no-install-recommends nodejs npm
RUN npm config set strict-ssl false
RUN npm install [email protected]
I build docker this way:
docker build .
Getting an error:
Step 4/4 : RUN npm install [email protected]

You are using an old version of Node, that might be part of the problem. Node 8 has been past end of life for almost a year.

@murgatroid99 Thanks, that solves the problem. Updated with:
npm cache clean -f
npm install -g n
n stable
Hello, there is still a problem.
Despite it does work, it doesn't work under corporate proxy. Most probably this is not an issue with grpc-tools, but could you please take a look?
While trying to install grpc-tools 1.9.0 under corporate proxy the error arises: Node.js: Error: 500 status code downloading tarball
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67127855/node-js-error-500-status-code-downloading-tarball
Unfortunately it is not temporrarily and is reproduced always. I see that here https://node-precompiled-binaries.grpc.io/ 1.6.6 is present, but 1.9.0 is not
Your original issue said that the installation succeeded on Ubuntu 20.04, but failed on Ubuntu 18.04. That's not an issue with a file not existing on the server. And I don't know how that XML file is generated, but it's definitely not complete. You can open the URL from the error message yourself and see that the file exists.
A 500 error is an internal server error, and I don't know why you would be getting that consistently from Cloudflare or Google Cloud Storage.
