Npm ERR! 503 Service Unavailable

Sonatype Nexus Repository
1

Using

  • nexus 3 = Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager OSS 3.33.1-01
  • node = v14.17.3
  • npm = 6.14.13
  • Zscaler
  • Windows 10

I have definied 3 npm repositories in nexus3:

  • npm-group
  • npm-private
  • npm-registry

I have added in .npmrc :

  • 3 proxies : http-proxy, https-proxy and proxy
  • registry=http://localhost:9081/repository/npm-group/
  • email and _auth
  • always-auth=true

I have added in packages.json :
“publishConfig”: { “registry”: “http://localhost:9081/repository/npm-private/” }

Here is my packages.json

  "name": "wampr_api",
  "version": "1.0.0",

In order to deploy my package to the NEXUS, I do the npm command : npm publish
But I still get the error :

"npm ERR! code E503 npm ERR! 503 Service Unavailable - PUT http://localhost:9081/repository/npm-private/wampr_api"

2 weeks ago, I could install from the nexus / deploy to the nexus. But now it is not working fine. I can not understand why this issue even if I configure proxy for nexus.

Please can you help me ?

I don’t think the 503 error code would be from Nexus, are you running a proxy server or perhaps some AV scanner perhaps that might be interferring?

3

I am always running a proxy server (zscaler) and so I add the specific proxy to the zscaler in the .npmrc file.

I do not know what is the AV scanner.

4

Sorry AV = Anti Virus Scanner.

Basically I’m saying I do not believe the 503 is a status code from Nexus, something between npm and Nexus is returning the 503.

Hello

Thank you for your reply and your help !

I have tried to add no-proxy and it is working fine. I can deploy to the nexus

I can publish my package to nexus but I can’t install my package from the nexus.

I have tested npm install mypackage@version with registry=http://localhost:8081/repository/npm-group/ But it is not fine :slight_smile:

c:\WORKSPACE\PROJECTS\WAMPR\TESTAPI>npm install wampr_api@1.0.0

==> when replacing with registry=https://registry.npmjs.org, it is ok

Can you help me ?

Finally, I can install my package from Nexus because I remove https-proxy from the .npmrc…

I don’t really understand about proxy
