Error: "hdb" couldn't be found

Hi team,

We are trying to move our existing Docker container to distroless container method.
In local, we are able to build the image and run the container but when we push it to our repo, our kyma k8s deployment pod is crashing.

Error:

[cds] - loading server from { file: 'srv/server.js' }

Node.js v20.10.0

We have all the dependencies and packages in our package.json and we are also able to verify it in our local running container but in our kyma k8s pod, it says that it is not able to find the hdb package.

Kindly help us in understanding and fixing this issue
Please let me know if you need any additional resource(s)/help

Start with package.json, the Docker image contents, and the srv/server.js startup path shown in the logs. Compare the locally built image with the image deployed to the Kyma Kubernetes pod, then verify why hdb is unavailable there and confirm that the pod starts successfully with the declared dependencies.
