PhantomJS not found on PATH

[ZappMH]

Hi everyone,
We had projects building on a Jenkins Slave server, and using phantomJS
Until last week, everythink worked fine

_> [email protected] install /home/jenkins_slave/workspace/Editorial_Gulp/EditorialIhm/src/main/webapp/node_modules/phantomjs-prebuilt

node install.js

Considering PhantomJS found at /lun/app1/tools/node-v6.4.0-linux-x64/bin/phantomjs_

But since this week, when we launch the exact same build, we have this

_> [email protected] install /home/jenkins_slave/workspace/Editorial_Gulp/EditorialIhm/src/main/webapp/node_modules/phantomjs-prebuilt

node install.js

PhantomJS not found on PATH
Downloading https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/releases/download/v2.1.1/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2_

(then the download fails because the server cannot access github for security reasons)

The problem is that phantomJS is in the server, and its location is declared in the variable $PATH of the user launching the build.

I am unaware of any change that may have occur on the platform, so I do not know where to begin to search.

Any help or advice would be great :)

Thanks in advance.

same issue

How is this even a problem? Does anyone know why Chrome for instance is flagging the url? It's basically just a redirect to Amazon S3, so is the problem S3? Is it flagged because someone uses Github to distribute malware, and then as a consequence other assets from different projects is also flagged?

It's really annoying because it have broken our CI build :D

[szelpe]

Please let me know if you have a solution for this issue as it breaks our CI build as well :\

We found the quick fix for the issue by overriding the PHANTOMJS_CDNURL env variable and setting it to our own URL. You can also use any URL here.
This is the default CDN Url: https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/releases/download/v2.1.1/ and the install.js adds phantomjs-2.1.1-windows.zip to the end.
So if you override the env variable like https://myOwnRepoUrl.com/folder and you have the content here https://myOwnRepoUrl.com/folder/phantomjs-2.1.1-windows.zip it should work.

this works for me

Adding PhantomJS to PATH manually solved this problem:
download PhantomJS manually, and unzip it, then add phantomjs.exe to the PATH env varibable.

[nhack]

I'm having exactly the same issue, any luck solving it?

[JoeKahl]

My solution is to manually download the zip and place it in the location the script expects.
Just read the error message carefully to find the expected path.

[nhack]

But the issue is really strange, because everything used to work fine, and suddenly the install.js script says phantomjs can't be found in the path, but phantomjs is there:

which phantomjs
-> /dev/node_modules/phantomjs/lib/phantom/bin/phantomjs

reinstall globally.

For Linux, just ran this script and it worked.

cd /usr/local/share
sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo tar xjf phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/share/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/bin/phantomjs

now, granted, i also did @dhruvdutt 's global install of phantomjs, but that didn't fix it.
what fixed it was to define TMPDIR=/tmp before running install. the problem was that
process.env.TMPDIR was resolving to null rather than a string.

RUN PHANTOMJS_CDNURL=https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/phantomjs/ npm install phantomjs-prebuilt

For me helps to install bzip2 with yum install bzip2 on centos machine.
