npm install error/issue


I have already set proxy configurations in .npmrc file. Executing the npm install command gives me error as follows"

$ npm install npm ERR! Windows_NT 6.1.7601 npm ERR! argv "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js" "install" npm ERR! node v6.9.4 npm ERR! npm v3.10.10 npm ERR! code ECONNRESET

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR! D:\Pooja\quickstart\npm-debug.log

The .npmrc file in user folder contains following values

 1. registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
 2. proxy=http://proxy@domain.com:8080/
 3. http_proxy=http://username:password@proxy@domain.com:8080/

Is there any way to solve this issue?


Solution

  • Does your proxy URL have '@' symbol in it? @ symbol separates the user ID and password from the URL. If it does, you can try using '%40' to replace it.

    Also, it is https-proxy not http_proxy.

    A correct config would look like -

    registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
    proxy=http://username:password@proxydomain:8080/
    https-proxy=https://username:password@proxydomain:8080/
