Rush cannot run correctly after SAP Commerce Upgrade to 2105

[janbu]

After updating our Instance to SAP Commerce 2105 (Patchlevel 2), the build fails in the Smartedittools step. It seems like the npm command it tries to run not works and there is not really an error message why it is not working. Output:

     [echo] Running [rush update] on path /home/user/hybris/bin/modules/smartedit/smartedittools
     [exec] 
     [exec] Your version of Node.js (16.6.0) is not a Long-Term Support (LTS) release. These versions frequently have bugs. Please consider installing a stable release.

     [exec] The command failed:
     [exec]  npm install
     [exec] ERROR: Error: The command failed with exit code 1
     [exec] 

Is there something I can do to make it work again? I have npm installed, but it seems like it uses a bundled version.

I found the problem. Just in case someone has the same problem: In my case it was our Corporate Proxy (Zscaler) that causes the problem, because it intercepts all Traffic and NPM not used the System Certificate Store, so the connection was rejected.

The following command will add a certificate to the NPM Trust store. I added the Root-CA Certificate of Zscaler, that fixed the build:

export NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS=/path/to/custom/certificates/ZscalerRootCA.crt

This can also be added into the ~/.bashrc (or ~/.zshrc depending on the used shell) File.
