Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, copyfile

[sevilyilmaz]

I bumped the package from 6.1.1 to 9.0.1 and started getting this error when I re-run the tests. The initial run works fine but it tries to copy the files to the same directory with a .snap suffix for the consequent runs and throws this error below.

It seems to override the files and doesn't have the permission to do so. Though, it shouldn't override them if the snapshots are the same, right?

  1) size-small-ltr:
     Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, copyfile '/e2e/packages/package/screenshots/src/components/avatar/Avatar.vrt.ts/size-small-ltr.png' -> '/e2e/packages/package/screenshots/src/components/avatar/Avatar.vrt.ts/size-small-ltr.snap.png'

It doesn't have any stack trace, only this error which makes it hard to debug. I run the tests on Docker locally.

A similar error was reported here.

Can you give some detail on how you've organised things with config options and folder structures?

I've not seen or been able to recreate this error so far

We have a monorepo that holds web libraries hold Vue and React component libraries, and others such as libraries to run Cypress tests for Vue and React components.

vue-library/
react-library/
env-core/ // holds framework-agnosting Cypress config
env-react/
env-vue/

env-core

This is the base Cypress config that it holds

export default {
  // `devServer` is provided by the platform packages
  component: {
    video: false,
    specPattern: "**/*.vrt.{jsx,tsx,ts,js}",
    // This folder is different from the snapshot plugins folder because it's recreated from scratch on every test run
    screenshotsFolder: ".ui/screenshots/.tmp",
    fixturesFolder: ".ui-env/dist/vrt/fixtures",
    supportFile: ".ui-env/dist/vrt/support/component.js",
    indexHtmlFile: ".ui-env/dist/vrt/support/component-index.html",
    setupNodeEvents: (
      on: Cypress.PluginEvents,
      config: Cypress.PluginConfigOptions
    ) => {
      addMatchImageSnapshotPlugin(on);
      cypressSplit(on, config);
      return config;
    },
  },
};

env-vue and env-react

These have framework dependencies and they get the base config from env-core

import { defineConfig } from "cypress";
import cypressConfig from "@monorepo/env-core/dist/vrt/cypress.config.base";
import webpackConfig from "./webpack.config";

export default defineConfig({
  component: {
    devServer: {
      framework: "react",
      bundler: "webpack",
      webpackConfig,
    },
    ...cypressConfig.component,
  },
});

And this is the docker command that I run

docker run -i --rm -v /Users/user/workspace/monorepo:/e2e -v /Users/user/workspace/monorepo/packages/env-core:/e2e/packages/vue-library/.ui-env -w /e2e --ipc=host --shm-size=2g --entrypoint=cypress cypress/included:13.6.2 run --component --project /e2e/packages/vue-library --config-file /e2e/packages/vue-library/.ui-env/dist/vrt/cypress.config.js --spec packages/vue-library/dist/components/action-bar,packages/vue-library/src/components/action-bar
