Skipping build step in Vercel

[Ali-Hussein-dev]

I have three Nextjs apps in my Nx repo, to skip the build step, I added a shell script to every Nextjs app, (in total 3 scripts). What am I doing wrong?

Error message from Vercel

Running "./apps/kb-clients/ignore-vercel-build.sh"

/bin/sh: ./apps/kb-clients/ignore-vercel-build.sh: Permission denied

Error: Command failed with exit code 126: ./apps/kb-clients/ignore-vercel-build.sh

Shell Script

# follwed the Nx docu
# https://nx.dev/l/r/guides/deploy-nextjs-to-vercel

# Name of the app to check. Change this to your application name!
APP=kb-clients

# Determine version of Nx installed
NX_VERSION=$(node -e "console.log(require('./package.json').devDependencies['@nrwl/workspace'])")
TS_VERSION=$(node -e "console.log(require('./package.json').devDependencies['typescript'])")

# Install @nrwl/workspace in order to run the affected command
npm install -D @nrwl/workspace@$NX_VERSION --prefer-offline
npm install -D typescript@$TS_VERSION --prefer-offline

# Run the affected command, comparing latest commit to the one before that
npx nx affected:apps --plain --base HEAD~1 --head HEAD | grep $APP -q

# Store result of the previous command (grep)
IS_AFFECTED=$?

if [ $IS_AFFECTED -eq 1 ]; then
  echo "🛑 - Build cancelled"
  exit 0
elif [ $IS_AFFECTED -eq 0 ]; then
  echo "✅ - Build can proceed"
  exit 1
fi

I just had this issue and the fix was to add bash before the script in the ignored form field on vercel.
The final result for you would be:
bash ./apps/kb-clients/ignore-vercel-build.sh

thanks for following up on your own issue - ran into this as well. Should be added to the docs.
