npm run build runs successful but site does not work on server

[rico]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but maybe someone experienced something similar. It is a Laravel / Inertia (Vue 3) project.

When I build my (js) assets on the server using npm run build in a task everything seems to work fine, but as soon as I try to access the page, the assets load, but the page crashes. Now to the part where it gets difficult - no error or warning during the build process, no error in the console or the server / Laravel logs, just no information about what might be wrong.

Only thing that works is copying the locally built assets to the server.

I have almost the same node version locally (v20..9.0) as on the server (v20.11.0).

Anybody has an idea how to debug this?

Thanks a lot!
