I'm trying to run npm install
in the angular project folder I got from ASP.NET Boilerplate and I'm getting an error that is "related to npm not being able to find a file."
D:\Dev\AspNetBoilerplate\MyProject\3.5.0\angular>npm install

I can clearly see that this is happening because my node_modules
subfolder contains only a single folder structure with no files within it. That structure is:
node_modules\@angular-devkit\build-optimizer\node_modules
I have node 8.9.4, npm 5.6.0, and angular-cli 1.5.0 installed as well as typescript 2.0.0. The latter two packages have been installed globally.

When I run npm install
, I can see the packages being downloaded into the .staging
folder. At the point that the finalize
command is run (see the log below), I can see that the package folders are being consolidated and copied somewhere, but that somewhere does not appear to be my node_modules
subfolder other than the first set of subfolders as I have shown above. When the npm install
completes, the .staging
folder is deleted and all that I have left is that partial folder structure.
Admittedly I am new to Node development - I usually work on our ASP.NET Web API backends. I'm trying to get my development environment in sync with our front end developer's development environment. I have spent most of the day looking for a solution. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Node. I've tried different versions that match our front end developer's environment. I've tried using the latest versions of angular-cli and typescript and have fallen back to the versions I reference above in hopes that the "requires a peer" warnings would be resolved. I have searched for similar answers on this site. The closest one I have found remains unanswered.
Here is the end of the "complete log" referenced in the npm error output:

Please advise.
I had the SAME issue today and it was driving me nuts!!! What I had done was upgrade to node 8.10 and upgrade my NPM to the latest I uninstalled angular CLI
I then verified my Cache from NPM if it wasn't up to date I cleaned it and ran the install again if npm version is < 5 then use
npm cache clean --force
and created a new project file and create a new angular project.
Following what @viveknuna suggested, I upgraded to the latest version of node.js and npm using the downloaded installer. I also installed the latest version of yarn using a downloaded installer. Then, as you can see below, I upgraded angular-cli and typescript. Here's what that process looked like:
Thereafter, I ran
yarn
andnpm start
in my angular folder and all appears to be well. Here's what that looked like:Try the following steps:
1. Make sure you have the latest npm (npm install -g npm).
2. Add an exception to your antivirus to ignore the node_modules folder in your project.
3. $ rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json .
4. $ npm install
It might be related to corruption in Angular Packages or incompatibility of packages.
Please follow the below steps to solve the issue.
Update
ASP.NET Boilerplate suggests here to use yarn because npm has some problems. It is slow and can not consistently resolve dependencies, yarn solves those problems and it is compatible to npm as well.
