Failure to download

[hloukas]

Hi! I followed the installation instructions and after I successfully opened a client I tried to download an album. However the client failed to do so with the following error message:

app_1 | error - Error: Failed to launch the browser process! spawn /root/.cache/puppeteer/chrome/linux-1108766/chrome-linux/chrome ENOENT

I have verified that the chrome path is valid, however one can only access it as a sudoer. For regular users the access to the .cache folder is denied. So I am guessing that is the problem.

I set the docker container as privileged by adding the appropriate parameter in the docker compose file and I also tried running yarn setup as sudo but it does not work.

Any ideas on how to overcome this?

Hey @traba-cool-ass 👋 Can you please try

1. Remove docker-compose.yaml in the project root.
2. Replacing the code below with the code in your Dockerfile and run below commands?

I got some warnings and the following error in step 4/8:

Trying to solve it now, I will let you know if I solve it.

I think the issue is that for some reason npm is looking for /package.json, when package.json in the current folder so it should be ./package.json

Hey @traba-cool-ass, sorry this is my fault, I wrote npm install twice above file.

Please remove your docker build and image after that try this;

FROM node:14.16.0-buster-slim@sha256:908fe3e2e9196721064e1f1bf001f630ae1d7b2b4bdd65effff9f271711b04bb

Ok, I can see some progress now. The

docker build -t facebook-album-downloader .

command finishes successfully and builds the image but when I try to run it I get the following error:

next-starter-kit@3.0.0 dev /usr/app next dev

sh: 1: next: not found npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! syscall spawn npm ERR! file sh npm ERR! errno ENOENT npm ERR! next-starter-kit@3.0.0 dev: next dev npm ERR! spawn ENOENT npm ERR! npm ERR! Failed at the next-starter-kit@3.0.0 dev script. npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above. npm WARN Local package.json exists, but node_modules missing, did you mean to install?

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in: npm ERR! /root/.npm/_logs/2023-10-30T17_31_42_862Z-debug.log

I have run yarn install before doing all of this and I also tried running npm install with no results.

@traba-cool-ass, sorry for late response. I've been working on it for a while and finally solved it 😁 Can you please run

git pull origin master

I fixed the problem and committed it on master branch. Please check the commit and new README 👇 https://github.com/yasinatesim/facebook-album-downloader/commit/0a57796c2a9462e1f82268fbbaeb67e78de3819b

1. Rename .env.example to .env
2. Run docker build -t facebook-album-downloader .

[hloukas]

Hello again! No worries, took me a while to respond as well.

I no longer have any errors while building or running, however the .zip file that is downloaded is empty. Could it be that I am providing a wrong link?

In the terminal it says that it found a total of 0 photos.
