Node buildpack updated to circumvent npm cert issues
Change effective on 28 February 2014
A change was recently made to npm’s infrastructure that caused many users to receive a SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN
error during installation and publishing of packages. The npm-recommended fix is to set a blank value for ca
in your npm config.
This issue can be circumvented by upgrading to node 0.10.26
or greater, but the upgrade is not required. The node buildpack has been updated to automatically generate an .npmrc
for your app with the blank ca
entry, if one is not already present.
