Hi team,
First of all, THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for this wonderful library. Loving it!
I have been using the heroku playwright buildpack for the past 1 year and was running smoothly on the heroku app. A week back, I started running into the following issue on App Build.
Build Error on Server. Works flawlessly on local. (y)

Playwright Init Code:
browser = await { chromium, firefox }[browserName].launch(browserName === "chromium" ? {
args: ['--no-sandbox'],
chromiumSandbox: false,
headless: true
} : {});
- I found some posts pointing to an issue with Nodev.14.0 and tried setting node version on heroku to mirror my local environment but same error.
- I checked the demo app in repo and it seems to be working fine
Any idea what can be causing this?
