Large image size causing error? Build script returned non-zero exit code: 139

Support
1

Has anyone encountered with this error?
failed during stage ‘building site’: Build script returned non-zero exit code: 139

2

From a quick google search it means that the program crashed before it could exit, giving you this 139 error.

Do you have any other output from the logs?

What are you trying to deploy?

Our build image is a Linux system and in most cases an exit code of over 128 represents a process shutting down because of a signal it received from the operating system. There is info about this here:

  • (see the second answer)

Quoting part of the second answer (itself quoting the Advanced Bash Scripting Guide):

128+n: Fatal error signal “n”

So, for 139, this was signal 11 (because 139-128=11). Checking the signal manpage, (using man 7 signal) I see this:

SIGSEGV      11       Core    Invalid memory reference

So this appear to be a segmentation fault (aka segfault) during the build process.

Which static site generator are you using? Would you be willing to copy/paste the error message (and surrounding log lines for context) here?

I’m getting same error. I’m trying to deploy Gatsby site.
Here is the log.

This is almost certainly a memory overuse problem:

You’ll want to follow the advice in this article (specifically #5) about optimizing your site’s memory usage during build:

There are several gatsby plugins that are SUPER memory hungry and you need to be careful about using them on our build network unless you are an enterprise subscriber who can set custom build resources.

It helped me to solve the issue. It was certainly a large image size which was causing the problem. Thanks you @fool
