nuxt: Lock dir not cleaned on compromised lock & fatal error lock is already released
Version
Reproduction link
https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt.js
Steps to reproduce
- Start a build that takes some time to finish
- run:
touch -t 200012311800 ./node_modules/.cache/nuxt/build-lock-*.lock - wait for the
Unable to update lockwarning to be displayed- this appears to only ever show between webpack builds (eg when a Client/Modern/Server finishes)

- wait for the build to finish

What is expected ?
Only the warning should be displayed. Not sure why the trace is showing, probably consola feature?
What is actually happening?
- A Nuxt fatal error is printed about ‘Error: Lock is already released’
- the
./node_modules/.cache/nuxtfolder still contains the.lockfolder (the other folder is removed)
Additional comments?
Will have a look at this, creating this issue for reference

I’m also change my package.json from
"build": "nuxt build",to"build": "nuxt build --no-lock",it’s work for me--no-lockflag helpsThis also happened to us (Nuxt 2.5.1 with Typescript).
I managed to circumvent the issue by deleting the node_modules, reinstalling all packages and building fresh. A lock file was not deleted in the
node_modules/.cache/.nuxtbuild cache.it occurred to me when
nuxt buildin version 2.5.1, i think it is not fixed 2.5.0 -> 2.5.1Have recently got this after upgrading to 2.5.1. Using yarn.
I’m receiving it on a docker image with node 10.7.0 running on bitbucket pipelines, build time is 77.23s. OS is ubuntu 16.
Working fine for me locally on Mac, node 10.7.0, with a build time of 167.98s.
Exact same code. Downloading entire node_modules folder each time. Weird thing is if I mount myself in the container i’m using in pipelines locally, it works fine also 🤔🤔
For people here, see my comment here about possible causes: https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt.js/issues/5331#issuecomment-475852783
Bottom line is, if you are using Node v9 then upgrade to v10 (which is a lts release and had major performance improvements). If you are already on v10+, we still dont understand yet why the lock gets compromised so often in some environments.
