Error while trying to create react app using npm - node.js

I'm trying to creating react app using create-react-app command but I get this error message:
npm ERR! code ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT
npm ERR! errno ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT
npm ERR! network Invalid response body while trying to fetch https://registry.npmjs.org/dotenv-expand: Socket timeout

I tried to clean cache:
npm cache clean -f
I also tried restarting the computer and reinstall nodejs and npm, but nothing was fixed.
Can anyone know what is the issue? and how can I solve it?

You should use npx command (not npm) like that as in official documentation : https://reactjs.org/docs/create-a-new-react-app.html
npx create-react-app my-app

After more than 3 days of working on this error, I found the solution and fixed the problem by install another version of Nodejs.
The current version was v16.14.0 when I got this error. And now it's v16.0.0 and everything's is work just fine.

New versions of nodejs are not stable, downgrade to 16.0.0 was the better thing i made.

I solved this using the following command.
npm uninstall -g create-react-app
then
npm install -g create-react-app

npx create-react-app my-app ERROR "In most cases you are behind a proxy..."

Error when using npx create-react-app my-app. I'm new in node and react and I'm trying to create my first react app. I seem to have fairly good internet connection.
I tried npx create-react-app my-app 6 times but it's having the same error:

I am running this on windows 10 build 19044 using vscode with remote wsl extension which connects to my ubuntu-20.04 on wsl2.
I want to create my first react app.
What should I do from here?
Sometimes i got same error when not connected with network or poor network connection.
try to update npm using npm install -g npm#latest --force
I had the same issue this Error occurred because you are using proxy server to connect internet if so stopping using proxy will solve it but if you want to keep up with proxy
follow this
first clear cache
npm cache clear --force
second:
npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
third:
npm install -g create-react-app
last:
create-react-app appName

Is there a way to solve ECONNRESET error when using npm? I need to restart the machine to fix it

After using the computer for a while I cant use npm install anymore. If I restart the computer then all gets back to working.
I am using macOS Mojave 10.14.3 with node v11.12.0 and npm 6.9.0.
Tried the solutions here: npm not working - "read ECONNRESET" but no success
npm i faker
npm ERR! code ECONNRESET
npm ERR! errno ECONNRESET
npm ERR! network request to https://registry.npmjs.org/faker failed, reason: read ECONNRESET

It is always possible that for a few minutes, NPM was down - so try again now just in case.
But in general, I would start by trying to find where the problem lies.
Try this:
curl https://registry.npmjs.org/faker
That should produce pages and pages of JSON. If it doesn't, then it's possible that your terminal - for whatever reason - cannot access the internet. Comments below this answer have further steps you can try in debugging this.
If it does produce lots of JSON, then there is a problem in your version of NPM / node. As these seem to be the latest, try downgrading each to see if it's a new bug.
you can try these solutions
Solution 1:
MAC + LINUX
run this command with sudo
sudo npm install -g yo
Windows
run cmd as administrator and then run this command again
Solution 2:
run this command and then try
npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

Cannot Install Any Package NPM Node-JS

The problem I face is when I will install one of the packages NPM is always show
[............] /roolbackFailedOptional: verb npm-session ....
and the final show error like :
npm ERR! code e503
npm ERR! 503 Service Unavailable:
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR! C:Users\.......\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2018-08-08t08_09_25_773Z-debug.log
I have already found a solution from here. But it didn't worked.
The configuration NodeJS in my system :
and i use version for
NodeJS : 10.8.0
npm : 6.2.3
Please help me for fixed my problem...
not sure if it will fix your issue but i used
npm install --proxy proxy_address:port install package_name --save
when i had troubles with proxy, if this works, then you might have configured npm settings not the way you need to.

Unable to install electron from npm

I am trying to install electron on my ubuntu 16.04, i already have a working nodejs and npm. But suddenly I am unable to install modules by type:
sudo npm install electron
Below is the response am getting:

The issue is related to proxy configuration. Based on this answer, you can try the following.
First, try to remove if there exists your initial config:
npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy
And optionally if needed, try to set your proxy config
npm config set proxy proxy-url
npm config set https-proxy proxy-url
I tried everything but it seems I was using CENTOS which allowing me to install electron. I got help from FlashJonas: and tried installing electron again and it was installed as expected.
sudo npm install electron -g --verbose --unsafe-perm=true
Removing the proxy and https-proxy worked for me, just in case there is another person with a similar situation.
just enter the following in your terminal:
npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy
Do Any of the following. It Work for me.
Change Internet Connection.
Delete all electron file and then install npm insatll electron.
Try to install old version of electron.
This Error is because it can't able to download "electron-v11.2.1-win32-x64.zip" file. So Change Internet Connection it work for me.
I am behind a corporate proxy and had similar issues. None of the options above helped. In the end, I followed the instructions below to reconstruct the electron cache manually, so that it will not have to hit the network to download the binaries:
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/v14-x-y/tutorial/installation#custom-mirrors-and-caches
Basically I used a personal laptop (i.e. not behind the proxy) to install the latest electron on some test app, and then copied the %LOCALAPPDATA%\electron\Cache folder from my personal to the corporate laptop. Everything worked fine.

I try to install ionic, but when run npm install -g ionic I have error below.

My network don't have proxy, and when i run npm get proxy it said null
I already try to clean cache, and change registry to http://registry.npmjs.org/ and https://registry.npmjs.org/ and also I can access http://registry.npmjs.org/yo, but still have same error when installing ionic.
hope any solution for my issue.
Thank you,
There is some dependency problem.
see below link :
http://ionicframework.com/docs/concepts/development.html
Improved answer Below :
By default, brew install latest stable version of node (in this case 0.12.4). Based on the warning messages, ionic is expecting a lower version of node.
I was able to to solve this issue by installing a prior version of node (0.10.38).
$ brew remove node
$ rm ~/.node (might want to rename instead)
$ brew install homebrew/versions/node010
$ node --version
$ v0.10.38
Run npm install -g ionic worked as expected.
