mocha tests/* sh: 1: mocha: Permission denied – AWS CodeBuild with Node.js

Hi everyone,

I ran into the following error while running a Node.js build with AWS CodeBuild:

mocha tests/* sh: 1: mocha: Permission denied

To resolve this I removed node_modules from my repository and added it to .gitignore:

node_modules/

Thanks to the following links for the info:
