Amazon web services – ReferenceError: ReadableStream is not defined using Puppeteer's page.pdf() on AWS

I have implemented a PDF download feature in my current project using Puppeteer. I’m hosting the project on AWS with Node 18.

Locally, it works perfectly fine, but in production when I hit the PDF download API, it returns the following error: ReferenceError: ReadableStream is not defined.

Puppeteer version is 22.3.0

Here is the Puppeteer code:

public getReportPdf = async(req: Request, res: Response) = >{
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
  const page = await browser.newPage();

  try {
    const {
      reportId
    } = req.params;
    const reportData = await this.reportRepo.getJobAndTemplateWithReport(reportId);
    const htmlData = await ejs.renderFile('src/helper/templates/report.ejs', {
      record: reportData[0],
      reportOverview: REPORT_OVERVIEW
    });
    const image = await getBase64Image('https://maxscaffold-front-stg.taskgrids.com/assets/images/Max-Builders-Default.png') // Need to pass here companyLogo url
    await page.setContent(htmlData);
    const pdfBuffer = await page.pdf({
      displayHeaderFooter: true,
      headerTemplate: ` < div style = "font-size: 10px; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; margin-left: 300px" > <div > Powered by < /div>
        <img style="height: 50px; width: auto; margin-left: 5px" src="data:image/png;
      base64,
      $ {
        image
      }
      "/>
        </div>`,
        format: 'A4',
        printBackground: true,
        preferCSSPageSize: true,
        scale: 0.8,
        margin: {
          top: '100px',
          bottom:'50px'
        }
      });
      await page.close();
      await browser.close();

      const savepath = `./${STORAGE_BUCKET.DEFAULT}/${reportId}_report.pdf`;

      fs.writeFile(savepath, pdfBuffer, (err) => {
        if (err) {
          console.log('err', err);
        }
      });
      setTimeout(() => {
        fs.promises.unlink(savepath);
      }, 25000);

  
      const data = process.env.NODE_URL + `api/images/${reportId}_report.pdf`;
       return generalResponse(req, res,data, successMessage.REPORT_DISPLAY_SUCCESS, true, responseFlag.SUCCESS);
    } catch (error) {
      await page.close();
      await browser.close();
      return generalResponse(req, res, error, errorMessage.SOMETHING_WRONG, false, responseFlag.ERROR);
    }
  };"

Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue?

I have tried Node version 18 locally, then it works perfectly, but I don’t know why in production it gives an error.

This is error message which I get from the server

Error message (I’m not sure which line is causing the error):
