make dependencies
docker-compose run -u node --rm node yarn install
yarn install v1.21.1
error An unexpected error occurred: "EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/home/node/.yarn/v6'".

The .yarn folder is set up as a volume - by default using ~/.cache/yarn, or ${HOST_YARN_CACHE_FOLDER} if you've set it. Check the permissions on that folder.

@aligent-lturner I had the same issue. Changed the permissions of ~/.cache/yarn . Now it works. Thanks!

Hello, solved the issue with :z in the yarn cache folder(docker-compose.yaml):
'YARN_CACHE_FOLDER: '/home/node/.yarn:z

Thanks ;)

Thanks, running sudo chown ec2-user ~/.cache/yarn fixed it for me (ec2-user is the user running the command).

sudo chown ec2-user ~/.cache/yarn , I didn't understand what ec2-user , does not work for me

I think this issue should be re-opened.

I had it with a fresh akeneo v5 install. When the ~/.cache/yarn directory do not exist, the docker volume mount creates the directory automatically, with root owner.

Then the yarn install crashes. However if you already have a ~/cache/yarn directory (created by yarn with the good ownership), the install is OK.

To reproduce:

1. Remove the ~/cache/yarn directory
2. composer create project (from https://docs.akeneo.com/5.0/install_pim/docker/installation_docker.html)
3. make dev (from https://docs.akeneo.com/5.0/install_pim/docker/installation_docker.html)

Is it a really good solution to type sudo chown <the_user> ~/.cache/yarn just to be able to use it as a Docker volume for the installation script of Akeneo? I don't think so, tell me if I'm wrong..

I don't see any solution more adequate in these GitHub issue's answers. @allenprado @Edweis , except perhaps the solution of @joaotnlima who seems to have defined the Yarn cache used by the setup script of Akeneo as a new directory instead of ~/cache/yarn. Better solution indeed, I guess.

Please don't hesitate to correct me. (e.g.: I don't know what :z suffixed to a file name does, if doesn't aim to simply create a new one)

Hello, been a while :)

Adding some more info found here: https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/
Hope this helps.
