Hi, I’m getting this error when I want to run puppeteer on digital ocean app platform.
Error: Failed to launch the browser process!
/workspace/node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium/linux-1022525/chrome-linux/chrome: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
From what I’ve heard, the solution seems to be to install the missing dependencies by running sudo apt-get install
, but I can’t do that on the app platform.
Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

Hi there,
Indeed with the App Platform you can not install packages directly.
What you could do instead is to use a Dockerfile and specify all of the packages and dependencies that you need in there and deploy your app that way:

Hope that this helps!
Best,
