Unable to start nuxt3 storybook project on windows

[gab9281]

node version : 20.11.0
yarn version : 1.22.21
windows version : 23H2 (22631.3085)

Step to reproduce :

• Create nuxt3 repository using npx nuxi@latest init
• Select yarn as package manager
• add storybook using yarn add -D @nuxtjs/storybook
• Add nuxt config :

  modules: [
    '@nuxtjs/storybook',
  ],
  storybook: {
    url: 'http://localhost:6006',
    storybookRoute: '/__storybook__',
    port: 6006,
  },

• yarn run dev

Result :

node:events:496
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: spawn yarn ENOENT
    at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:286:19)
    at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:484:16)
    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21)
Emitted 'error' event on ChildProcess instance at:
    at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:292:12)
    at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:484:16)
    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21) {
  errno: -4058,
  code: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'spawn yarn',
  path: 'yarn',
  spawnargs: [ 'install' ]
}

Try to identify the situation :

• Do the same steps but in wsl-ubuntu
• WORKS !
• Copy the dependencies :

    "react": "^18.2.0",
    "react-dom": "^18.2.0",
    "storybook": "7.6.7",
    "@types/node": "^18.17.5",
    "@storybook/vue3": "7.6.7",
    "@storybook-vue/nuxt": "0.2.1",
    "@nuxtjs/storybook": "7.0.0",
    "@storybook/addon-links": "7.6.7",
    "@storybook/builder-vite": "7.6.7",
    "@storybook/addon-essentials": "7.6.7",
    "@storybook/addon-interactions": "7.6.7",
    "@storybook/testing-library": "^0.2.0",
    "@storybook/blocks": "7.6.7"

• run yarn install

Result : same error

node:events:496
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: spawn yarn ENOENT
    at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:286:19)
    at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:484:16)

  syscall: 'spawn yarn',

  spawnargs: [ 'install' ]
}

2nd resolution try :

• Upgrade yarn
  • admin console : corepack enable
  • yarn set version stable ( v 4.1.0 )
  • yarn install
  • yarn run dev : Works ...

I've been working a full day on this previously @ job (4 days ago) and had a esbuild-arm error at theses steps.
I am still posting this due to being helpfull for those stuck @ step1 but i'm confused.

While being there :
The page : https://nuxt.com/modules/storybook have different steps to reproductions and is misleading to another repository : https://github.com/storybook-vue/storybook-nuxt.

Which is the official implementation ?

[1337doctor]

Had the same issue.
It seems that this line of code might cause the problems. spawn(cmd, [], { shell: true ... }); setting shell to true could fix this. I haven't verified this. But I had the same issue spawning processes on windows in some other script.

Same problem.
Node v20.11.1
npm v10.4.0
Windows 22H2 (19045.4046)
