This is on an EL6 host, I assume a node / npm package version issue?
- Subject changed from unable to complie webpack compressed assets. to unable to compile webpack compressed assets.
I assume a node / npm package version issue?
So what are the node/npm versions you're using? CI tests are fine.
Does this still occur after npm up?

npm version
{ TheForemanDevDeps: '1.15.0',
npm: '4.0.5',
ares: '1.9.1',
http_parser: '2.0',
modules: '11',
node: '0.10.40',
openssl: '1.0.1e-fips',
uv: '0.10.30',
v8: '3.14.5.10',
zlib: '1.2.3' }

yes.
This is indeed due to node version, you are using 0.10.
Our builders have all been upgraded to use newer versions, which is why this doesn't break on CI.

Update the manual to indicate that nodejs >= 4.x is required for source installs.
More and more modules are breaking or requiring significant workarounds on node 0.10 which was first released 4 years ago and ended maintenance mode already after an extended LTS.
Since node is only required for building the assets and not for running foreman in production, there is no reason to support older versions. Closing this issue.
