For me temporarily switching node versions from 16 to 20 fixed it

For me temporarily switching node versions from 16 to 20 fixed it

unfortunately not for me. Still failing with:

> % yarn nx migrate latest                 
/bin/sh: /var/folders/gr/94gk9mr11w90b8q6jt1701sm0000gn/T/tmp-96357-ymYkluNVHP0f/node_modules/.bin/nx: No such file or directory

Would be really nice to get some input from the NX team on this... but then they also have more than 500 open issues :-(

Also get this after manually updating packages to @nx16...

[ChrisSargent]

Was able to get this to work by directly running ./node_modules/.bin/nx _migrate latest twice from the repo root. First pass seemed to update the packages, second pass created the migrations file.

[igilham]

I have the same issue but the workaround works: ./node_modules/.bin/nx _migrate latest

Same issue happened to me as well when running the following. I was trying to upgrade from "nx": "15.7.0" to the latest:

> % nx migrate latest                 
/bin/sh: /var/folders/gr/{some temp directories path}/node_modules/.bin/nx: No such file or directory
Command failed: /var/folders/gr/{some temp directories path}/node_modules/.bin/nx _migrate latest

I took https://github.com/nrwl/nx/issues/16338#issuecomment-1588884718 as a workaround and it pass. Please note that the 2nd step is the actual migration: yarn nx migrate --run-migrations - it will fail as well with the same error above. Instead I run: yarn nx _migrate --run-migrations for this step as well and it passed successfully.

Our project is a micro-frontend mono-repo based application. It has a container with main menu and user preferences, for the logged in user - this is the "host". Each page is developed by a deferent team and is a "remote" application. Before the upgrade we could share the host with the remote applications, for example - user selection of dark theme from the main menu affects all remote application (by using zustand as state management across the application). After the upgrade to NX 16 the state is not shared anymore by default as with version 15. To overcome it we changed the module-federation.config.js of the host application by adding the following:

  shared: (name, config) => {
    return { ...config, singleton: true };
  },

[arvidboivie]

There's another workaround that's setting YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" for your command, i.e. YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn nx migrate latest.

I think the issue is that yarn defaults to pnp mode when used by nx, and it doesn't read your local .yarnrc file to check settings.

[igilham]

Interesting. I have the node linker mode set to node0-modules in my config but if it isn't being read then that won't help.

This suggests that the problem may be reproducible in Nx's automated testing in CI by running yarn with a few different configurations.

[pongells]

This fails with PNP enabled, as there is no node_modules/.bin/nx.

It is very annoying, but the "workaround" of falling back on node_modules via the YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" environment variable seems to work..

YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn
YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn nx migrate latest
YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn nx migrate --run-migrations
yarn

(the last yarn just deletes all the node_modules that are not necessary because PNP)

[ste7en]

Still fails applying migrations with these workarounds. Yarn 3.4.1, Nx 16.7.2, Node 18.13.0.

Edit: Running YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" NX_MIGRATE_SKIP_INSTALL=1 yarn nx migrate --run-migrations solved my issue as the error comes when Nx runs yarn install before running migrations

[nemonemi]

@pongells' solution worked for me, But this is far from ideal.

[meeroslav]

TL; DR; Workaround

For everyone affected by this problem, please follow the workaround proposed by @arvidboivie to use environment variable override. This is needed only for the nx migrate ... commands.

YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn nx migrate latest
yarn # no env var needed
YARN_NODE_LINKER="node-modules" yarn nx migrate --run-migrations

More details

When running nx migrate ... commands to upgrade from version A to version B, we need to run the migration command using the new version B. In order to do this, we generate a temp folder where we install version B and then run the nx migrate pointing to your repo. This works as expected for all cases apart from one. Sadly, that one affects you.

If you use Yarn Berry with nodeLinker set to node-modules everything works fine inside your repo, but that temp folder doesn't know about the nodeLinker settings (which is a bug we need to fix) so it uses the default, PnP installation.

Based on your repo, nx is still expecting to find binary in the node_modules\nx\.bin, but that doesn't exist for PnP, and you end up with that ugly error.

Solution

Now that we know the problem, we'll see the fix is implemented as soon as possible. Sorry for the delay.

Thank you all for your contribution to clarification of this issue.
