Expected behavior

Hello guys,
i need your help to resolve a strange problem i have running "electron-forge make"
i just started a new project with the template vite + typescript.
for this project i needed to read serial port so i installed node-serialport.
i don't have problem during development but when i try to make the app i receive this error:

export default config;

i tried to use "overrides" in package.json to try to use node-gyp version 8.2.0 as someone suggests on internet but i really don't understand how to resolve this issue

Thanks!

Steps to reproduce

Create a new electron project with vite+typescript
Install node-serialport (i don't know if this is the cause)
Try to make the project

Setting asar: false i can make the program successfully

[GitMurf]

@dj-fiorex I am seeing similar issue but for my better-sqlite3 native lib. Did you ever make any progress on this other than setting asar to false?

[dj-fiorex]

Nothing to do, I tried two or three solutions but the problem remain

[RobertGemmaJr]

Same error as the screenshot for me when using serial port
