Authentication Error with EDU License Token (E401)
Hi Mobiscroll Team đź‘‹
I'm currently running a project using Mobiscroll React components, and everything worked perfectly during the 90-day trial. I was using a token of the form:
8PRsomethingX37yGCsKVNanonymousszFdrE1HBYSOMETHINGrQeBtIJThis token was injected through my .env file into Docker (via ARG NPM_TOKEN), and npm install worked flawlessly within my Docker container.
Now, I've received a new token via the 12 months EDU License program (thanks! 🙏). The new token looks like this:
something-aaaa-bbbb-111a-a5ezaevvz43(Note: this is a fake token format for the example).
However, after replacing the old token with the new one and rebuilding the container using:
docker compose up --buildI now consistently get the following error during npm install --legacy-peer-deps :
=> ERROR [client 5/8] RUN npm install --legacy-peer-deps
------
> [client 5/8] RUN npm install --legacy-peer-deps:
npm ERR! code E401
npm ERR! Unable to authenticate, your authentication token seems to be invalid.
npm ERR! To correct this please try logging in again with:
npm ERR! npm login
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in: /root/.npm/_logs/...
failed to solve: process "/bin/sh -c npm install --legacy-peer-deps" did not complete successfully: exit code: 1
exit status 17
Environment Info:
- Docker Compose for both frontend and backend
- The token is passed via
.env→ARG NPM_TOKEN - Inside the Dockerfile, I copy
.npmrcwith//npm.mobiscroll.com/:_authToken=${NPM_TOKEN}
