I created a new project, then ran rm -rf node_modules and pnpm install and the following happened:
Is there something I’m missing to be able to use pnpm?
Hi there - to make sure your project has pnpm enabled, can you run enable-pnpm in the terminal. This should trigger a pnpm install without you having to run the pnpm i command.
Oh whoops, I forgot to include that in the first post. I ran enable-pnpm before running pnpm install as well and that was the result.
Is graceful-fs one of your projects dependencies? It could be that it’s not compatible with that version of Node. If it’s not a dependency of yours, though, email support@glitch.com with this info and we can look into it further on Monday when we get back!
For anyone else who runs into this issue, from Glitch support:
- If you want to use pnpm, you’ll need to use a version of Node less than 14, as otherwise Glitch will use npm - Can I change the version of node.js my project uses? - Glitch Support
- Glitch containers come with specific versions of tooling and the version of pnpm we have set up is not compatible for those later versions of Node.

I ran into a similar issue while using Node 16 and pnpm to manage my monorepo. It worked fine on my development machine but failed when I tried to deploy it to Glitch. The workaround for me is,
- Install pnpm to the project’s root package.json. pnpm add -D pnpm@7.27.0 -w, or npm i -D pnpm.
- Then, you can run any pnpm command by prefixing it with ‘npx’, such as ‘npx pnpm add A-Package --filter A-Sub-Project’ or ‘npx pnpm A-Script’, etc.
Basically, instead of using glitch’s pnpm 2.25.5, you install a newer pnpm at your project root.

can you check if dependencies take up project disk space when using this technique?
