I ran the command npm install -g generator-jhipster
as JHipster's website states on the Homepage at chapter "JHipster Quick Start".
NPM installed version v8.0.0-beta.1
. How to get rid of a beta and install the latest stable version?
Thanks to user jonsharpe I could install the "stable" version. The developers would not care and ship a bleeding edge version, though this seems uncommon to me. But it is simple to remove it. If one installs a global version, it it required to remove it using the flag -g
. Source: How to Remove a Global Package with npm Uninstall
These steps solved my question:
npm uninstall -g generator-jhipster
Select a version tag at npm - generator-jhipster
npm install -g generator-jhipster@7.9.3
That's it folks.
