Build fails with "Could not create Module: Parameter 'modulePath' must contain an absolute path"

[NikoletaBogdanova]

Jenkins build of UI5 app began failing since releasing ui5-project 3.0.3 version on 01.03.2023 on step
ui5 build --config=uimodule/ui5.yaml --clean-dest --dest uimodule/dist --include-task=generateManifestBundle --clean-dest --verbose"

I suppose this change is causing the error SAP/ui5-project@f36b50e

On my local machine the build is just fine. The -verbose option does not print which module is not defined with absolute path

What should we do to fix the Jenkins build?

First of all, please commit the lockfile, e.g. package-lock.json (see https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v9/configuring-npm/package-lock-json) to your repository in order to have reproducible builds in CI.

The mentioned change was already part of the initial 3.0.0 release, so I wonder whether it is indeed the root cause.

With the information provided I'm unable to reproduce the mentioned issue.
Please either provide a small, public example project to demonstrate the issue, or as you seem to be an employee, send me the project details via e-mail.

Hi, I've committed the package-lock.json file in the repo but the result is the same. On my local machine (Mac) the build passes successfully and it fails on the Jenkins (Alpine image). We reverted the version of "@ui5/cli": "2.14.17" in the master not to block the work. I will send you an email with the details.
