Latest @sentry/profiling-node (9.28.1) not working with Node 20 Azure Function: "version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found"

[heidemn-faro]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have checked for existing issues https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/issues
• I have reviewed the documentation https://docs.sentry.io/
• I am using the latest SDK release https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript/releases

How do you use Sentry?

Sentry Saas (sentry.io)

Which SDK are you using?

@sentry/node

SDK Version

9.28.1

Framework Version

Azure Function with Node v20

Link to Sentry event

No response

Reproduction Example/SDK Setup

import * as Sentry from "@sentry/node";
import { nodeProfilingIntegration } from "@sentry/profiling-node";
import { version } from "./version";

// When DSN is undefined, Sentry just ignores all calls
const SENTRY_DSN = process.env.SENTRY_DSN || undefined;

export function getReleaseSemver(): string {
	return `OURAPP-functions@${version}`;
}

Sentry.init({
	dsn: SENTRY_DSN,
	integrations: [nodeProfilingIntegration()],
	// Tracing
	tracesSampleRate: 1.0, // Capture 100% of the transactions

	// Set sampling rate for profiling - this is relative to tracesSampleRate
	profilesSampleRate: 1.0,

	// Set the release version
	release: getReleaseSemver(),
});

Expected result (working fine with Sentry 9.14.0):
Function app is deployed and running.
Since 9.28.1 differs in minor version only, I would not expectthe following breaking change:

Actual result (broken with Sentry 9.28.1):
Function app is deployed, but returns header-only 404 responses. SSH into the function reveals this error:

Node.js v20.19.1

Expected Result

Function app is deployed and running with Node v20 Azure Function.

Actual Result

See error above - it seems that the pre-built binaries are not compatible with Node v20 Azure Functions.

Could it be that this upgrade caused the incompatibility?
c6760c4 "ci: Update runners to ubuntu-24.04 (#15501)"

Hey, thanks for reporting!

Looking at our commit history, the only change that stands out since 9.14.0 is #16236, or getsentry/sentry-javascript-profiling-node-binaries#12 respectively, which was released in 9.18.0.

@heidemn-faro could you try 9.17.0 and 9.18.0 and check if the problem is related to this version specifically? Would be much appreciated to narrow this down.

I don't think #15501 is related, given that we build the binaries outside the monorepo (see https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-javascript-profiling-node-binaries). Also, 9.14.0 was released in April and this was merged in February.

Other than that, I don't have much context on our binaries though, so I'll tag @AbhiPrasad and @timfish (also cc @JonasBa) -- could you take a look at this please?

[heidemn-faro]

Thanks for your quick reply :-)

I can confirm already that it's working like this.
I'll try other combinations too.

# package.json
        "packageManager": "pnpm@10.12.1",
	"dependencies": {
		"@azure/functions": "^4.7.3",
		"@sentry/node": "~9.17.0",
		"@sentry/profiling-node": "~9.17.0",

# pnpm-workspace.yaml
overrides:
  "@sentry-internal/node-cpu-profiler": "2.1.0"

• WORKS: 9.17.0 + node-cpu-profiler@2.1.0
• WORKS: 9.18.0 + node-cpu-profiler@2.1.0 (this violates the specified dependency version range
  "@sentry-internal/node-cpu-profiler": "^2.2.0")
• WORKS: 9.28.1 + node-cpu-profiler@2.1.0 (also against specified version range)
• BROKEN: 9.17.0 + node-cpu-profiler@2.2.0
• BROKEN: 9.18.0 + node-cpu-profiler@2.2.0

[timfish]

GitHub retired the Ubuntu 20.04 runners so @sentry-internal/node-cpu-profiler@2.2.0 effectively bumped the minimum libc version supported. Because @sentry/profiling-node depends on ^2.0.0 this change would have impacted anyone who updated their Sentry dependencies.

This is the specific change that would have caused this:

getsentry/sentry-javascript-profiling-node-binaries#13

What Linux distribution and version does Azure functions use? Sounds like it uses Debian but not sure what version.
