It looks like the cause of the problem is "gulp-imagemin", as a workaround remove this line:
.pipe(imagemin({optimizationLevel: 5, progressive: true, interlaced: true}))
from: gulpfile.js
Your images must be in src/main/webapp/content/images
to get minified and copied by gulp to target/www/content/images
and then be copied at the root of you war in content/images
by maven or gradle.
If gulp-imagemin says it minified 0 images, it's often due to missing binaries needed in these node modules:
If you look eg. into node_modules/optipng-bin
, you'll see that the optipng
binary is missing (should be in a vendor
subfolder).
They are not compiled during npm install, and it's completely silent :)
Installing the zlib1g-dev
package fixed the issue on a fresh Debian 9 system.
I had to install build-base and zlib-dev https://github.com/imagemin/optipng-bin/issues/84
Generally speaking, you need several build tools on your system to build a JHipster prod package (make, g++ for scss, etc.).
