You should be able to fix the problem by updating node.

for Windows:

just reinstall node from the .msi in Windows from here.

for Ubuntu or Linux/Mac:

  • install module n to makes version-management easy:

sudo npm install n -g

  • For the latest stable version:

sudo n stable

  • For the latest version:

sudo n latest

In my case, I had snuck in a apt update in my Dockerfile, which makes the system aware of the update. It's best practice to keep versions strict. For example using 'packageName': '1.0.0' instead of 'packageName':'latest'

I was able to solve, by removing the apk update and also upgrading my version of node:alpine to node:alpine3.13.
