NX Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'indexOf')

[uginroot]

Current Behavior

When running the yarn nx command two times in a row inside a dockerfile (not manifested locally), an error occurs:

NX Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'indexOf')

// ./node_modules/nx/src/project-graph/project-graph.js:228

The variable e contains an object with a letter in each property. If you put it all together in a string, you get Failed to start plugin worker..

Found this error in the source code. It's located here:

./node_modules/nx/src/project-graph/plugins/isolation/plugin-pool.js:259

In the ipcPath variable there is a line with the following content /tmp/plugin57-0.sock50, maybe this will help.

At the moment I managed to get rid of this error with RUN rm -rf /tmp/* after every run of yarn nx ....

This error occurs both when running the image build on the local machine and in github actions.

Expected Behavior

The nx commands inside dockerfile run sequentially without having to clear the /tmp/* directory.
