Deploy.ps1 fails during UI Build due to UnicodeEncodeError

[daveinci]

Describe the bug
Running deploy.ps1 fails during UI build phase, specifically during vite install, due to handling of error received during vite installation when it returns a checkmark (character '\u2713') in its result. Running the commands manually work.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Follow deployment instructions for "Full" deployment with PrivateACR and custom $ResourceNames defined. https://azure.github.io/ipam/#/deployment/README
2. See error:
   RUN npm run build ---> Running in

Expected behavior
Expect deploy.ps1 to complete without error and ipam applications to be running in app service.

Good morning daveinci, I'm working on reproducing this now and will circle back with you shortly once I have some answers on the best way to address this. Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention!

Hey daveinci, the root cause for this stems from how the Vite build process will emit an Unicode "checkmark" character, and then that being captured by PowerShell and redirected to a variable. Long story short, this is an issue with how this is handled in Windows systems, but there is something you can try as a workaround for now.

Take a look at the fix in this link, which shows how to enable UTF-8 support in Windows:
microsoft/knack#178

I would suggest enabling that for now and seeing if that unblocks you, and in the meantime I will continue working on a more permanent/universal fix for this issue.

Please let me know if the above helps!

[daveinci]

Thanks DCMattyG. I worked around by running the 'az acr build' commands manually. Enabling Control Panel -> Region -> Administrative -> Change system locale -> Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support would likely do the trick but appreciate you looking for the permanent/universal fix. Think that will help users.

Hi daveinci, this issue has been addressed in PR #181. For now, I've changed the output of the build to "warn" which will stop the Unicode output seen at the "info" level. I've tested four many hours trying to find a way to alleviate this via scripting, but it appears unless you enable UTF-8 support in Windows (as mentioned in my previous comment), nothing I've found through script changes has been able to alleviate this issue.

I'll keep looking for a better workaround, but now this issue should be resolved. Please let me know if you have any further issues and we'll get right on them. Thanks again!
