Getting error "SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN" while running the process.

We are trying to use the same image & code base, but we end up with the error below. Any assistance would be really helpful. Please note, we already tried with multiple options.

1. Added the certs file
2. npm config set cafile "/etc/ssl/cert.pem" -g
3. npm config set ca=""
4. export NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 (last options )

(node:77) Warning: Setting the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable to '0' makes TLS connections and HTTPS requests insecure by disabling certificate verification.
