Hello, does this happen every time, or just on some occasions? Without any additional information, it seems like a network issue to me.

Thank you yes, there is a network issue in China.

one solution is to download node-v20.8.1-headers.tar.gz file to our local compute by hand instead of using gyp http get and then move it to the right place, but we don' know where we should put this node-v20.8.1-headers.tar.gz file.

You can check which options node-gyp exposes. as far as I recall --tarball=PATH_TO_TARBALL should be the option you're looking for, but I haven't used it in a while.

I'm closing this issue since it has been stale for some time after I suggested the workaround. If needed, please reopen it, or open a new issue.
