[SOLVED] NPM: ENOENT: no such file or directory, rename

NPM: ENOENT: no such file or directory, rename

I was using gulp on the project, then i decide to deleted all the dev dependencies to switch to webpack, but every time i try to install using npm is get this error:

npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: fsevents@1.1.3 (node_modules\fsevents):

any idea what can be happening.

Solution

I found a solution for the problem, apparently is some kinda problem with the last version of npm, i was using npm version 5.6.0 and i downgraded to npm version 5.3.0. This did work after all, after intall a couple packages i still get the same error.

ok change version of npm for the last version 5.8.0 now everything working just perfect, before was some kind of problem with atom that denied the permission the building process to install the dependencies of the package.
