extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue is likely caused by the stdout maxBuffer length being exceeded, and increasing this limit may resolve the problem.

Guidance

  • The error message indicates that the stdout maxBuffer length has been exceeded, which suggests that the output of the child process is too large.
  • To verify this, check the output of the child process to see if it is indeed producing a large amount of data.
  • Consider increasing the maxBuffer limit to allow for larger output, or implement a way to handle large output, such as streaming or buffering.
  • Review the code that handles the child process output to ensure it is properly configured to handle large amounts of data.

Example

No code example is provided as the issue does not include specific code snippets.

Notes

The solution may not apply if the child process output is not the cause of the issue, or if increasing the maxBuffer limit is not feasible.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Increase the maxBuffer limit to allow for larger output, as this is the most likely cause of the issue and increasing the limit may resolve the problem.
