I'm completely new to javascript development and I'm getting the following error as I work my way through the backbone_blueprints book. Here is the error I get:

My solution was to just delete the directory /node_modules/ and to make a fresh install afterwards with npm install.

Nodedemon is looking for its ../lib/cli folder in its own directory and not finding it. You probably have a messed up install. This can happen sometimes when you use finder to copy a project from one folder to another.

If you blow away your node_modules directory and reinstall from scratch, you should restore the folder.

cd your_project_folder
rm -rf node_modules
npm install

Edit:

You might also use yarn.

cd your_project_folder
rm -rf node_modules
yarn

For me npm was broken, probably because I ran it with sudo at some point.

I needed to fix brew, upgrade/update

brew uninstall node
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/*
brew cleanup
brew install node

I found the fix. I had to install nodemon globally doing this: npm install nodemon -g

I had this error, leaving this here in case it helps anyone.

I installed yarn and apparently messed up my node install, tried to fix it by uninstalling stuff, made a total mess. Brew wouldn't install node successfully (old OS maybe out of LTS, installing from source code wouldn't make npm work).

Even

npm -v

would give the error (so nothing to do with node_modules). Finally fixed it by installing node using a package manager from here.

You can try doing the following

npm uninstall nodemon
npm install nodemon

In macOS BigSur i had to clean up the node modules folder first:

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules

Note: Reason i needed sudo is some of the folders need special permission to remove them.

After removing node_modules I had reinstalled npm package by:

brew postinstall node

Finally i was able to see npm back into my mac:

npm -v
7.21.1

So npm creates a symbolic link between modules that have an executable declared in the package.json file and the node_modules/.bin directory.

Read from npm to understand.

Dr. Axel Rauschmayer explains more here.

When ever a project directory and its node_modules folder is copied using macos finder, windows file explorer or command line, this symlink is destroyed. Thus calls to the symbolically linked file on the node_modules/.bin directory cannot hit the supposed package.

In your case it was nodemon . To manually fixed this run

ln -s ./node_modules/nodemon/bin/nodemon.js ./node_modules/.bin/nodemon

for any other package, check the "bin": { } key in it's package.json and see the the symlinked executable, then modify the link command above and run according.

brew uninstall node
brew upgrade 
brew install node
brew link --overwrite node 
npm -v

Worked for me.

brew link --overwrite node

Is all that is needed. No need to uninstall.

Had the same problem.

I use protractor --elementExplorer and it works for me

Protractor have changed the location.The lib/built protractor files now reside in the built directory of the package. You should just be able to direct your IDE to built/cli.js This worked for me.

Check their Github Issue link :

https://github.com/angular/protractor/issues/3089

I was getting same error after installing nodejs using homebrew to fix it I have downloaded and installed nodejs from it's official website. It's working fine now.

Got this error whilst building docker image with line RUN apt install -g serve Fixed it by changing the method to

RUN  curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash
ENV NVM_DIR=/root/.nvm
RUN . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" && nvm install ${NODE_VERSION}
RUN . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" &&  nvm use v${NODE_VERSION}
RUN . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" && nvm alias default v${NODE_VERSION}
RUN cp /root/.nvm/versions/node/v${NODE_VERSION}/bin/node /usr/bin/
RUN cp /root/.nvm/versions/node/v${NODE_VERSION}/bin/npm /usr/bin/
RUN /root/.nvm/versions/node/v${NODE_VERSION}/bin/npm install  serve -g

I tried most of these solutions, minus yarn and brew, to no avail. What ended up fixing it was:

curl -qL https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh | sudo sh

And voila, it was all better!
