I run : npm run dev
Error : npm is known not to run on Node.js v10.24.1
I have researched and know the command: npm install -g npm#latest and some other commands to fix the problem
But the problem is that my project is using nodejs 10 so it can't use the latest nodejs. So is there any way to fix the above error. Thank you
UPDATE :
I use nvm to install and manage versions of nodejs. And my OS is macOs
The problem for me was upgrading my global version of npm while on an incompatible version of Node (8.16.1).
I tried to uninstall npm globally but that also didn't work because I could not use the npm command.
To fix it, I used nvm to switch to a compatible version of Node (nvm use 14.0.0 - this can be any version of Node compatible with the npm version you have installed globally). This allowed me to run npm commands so I ran npm uninstall -g npm first of all to remove my global version of npm and then nvm uninstall 8.16.1 to remove my faulty Node version.
I was then able to reinstall Node 8.16.1 (nvm install 8.16.1), and with it came a fresh install of a compatible npm version.
I happen to work on a project that builds on node 10 as well.
More details would have been helpful to understand the problem better but I suspect it's a compatibility issue.
Try these:
Download and install the latest version of nodejs.
Open you terminal and verify you have the latest version using node -v. Verify your npm version too using npm -v.
Since you have nvm installed, run nvm install 10, then nvm use 10.
Verify your versions again. In my case, node is v10.24.1 & npm is 6.14.12.
Start your app using npm run dev. Please check you package.json to be sure you are using the right startup command.
I was having the same problem, I ran the command and it solved the problem with NPM
sudo n latest
Node: v10.19.0
NPM: 8.9.0
Reference
I performed an upgrade of npm by mistake and run into the same issue.
The only way to solve for me was to delete the two following directories:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache
npm is known not to run on Node.js v10.24.1 comes when normally people upgrade the version of npm to latest or recent ones, but when it comes to node 10 version you can use npm version 6.4.1 or 6 series. Normally npm 6.4.1 will come with node js 10.24.1 but if you have given any npm update cmd you need to go to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming and delete npm and npm cache folders then delete npm folders in C:\Users\username\AppData\local then check the npm version using npm -v. After doing this install the angular version
Thanks #Oduola Olumide Sunday for the response. I have followed your way but still not solved the problem.
And I fix it by removing the latest nodejs version and using the normal node v10.24.1

This error happens when your npm version is not what you think it is...
For instance, you download a nodejs pkg and install. Run node -v, npm -v... npm -v provides the error that brought you here.
This means your aren't using the version the nodejs pkg installed, but some remnant somewhere- from other install attempts.
In my case, I had a Homebrew installed version of npm that I didn't realize existed.
You can find the locations, at least on mac, using the 'where' command.
where npm
Which will return path(s) of your npm locations. Find the one that doesn't belong and give it the boot.
Then your npm -v will return the expected version number output.
Now you can execute npm commands.
I had the same problem.
I was using node 12 with nvm
Then, I switched to node 16, uninstalled the version 12 with nvm uninstall 12 and then I installed it again with nvm install 12 and it is working fine
For nvm used under macOS, I solve this issue in this way
First, run nvm ls-remote to get the latest version of v10
-> v10.24.1 (Latest LTS: Dubnium)
Then install the latest version of v10 through
nvm install 10.24.1 --latest-npm
In case anyone here needs to install an npm version (7.24.2) that does support node 10, rather than upgrade node.
Here is what I did:
url=`(curl -qSsL https://registry.npmjs.org/npm/7.24.2; echo "") | sed -e 's/^.*tarball":"//' | sed -e 's/".*$//'`
curl -qSsL -o npm.tgz "$url"
bin/npm-cli.js install -gf ../npm.tgz # in case npm is not installed where "which npm" points to, you might need to add --prefix=$(which npm | sed 's/\/bin\/npm//')
The reference is the installation script of 7.24.2 https://github.com/npm/cli/blob/v7.24.2/scripts/install.sh
In my case I had put ^ in one of the package version in my package.json. Which takes latest version of that library and it was not compatible to older npm version which caused me this error.
Remove all ^ from package versions and try again.
your nodejs version should come with its own npm that it supports.so if your machine has issues finding the npm version go to cdrive C:\Users\Machine name\AppData\Roaming
delete npm and npm cache folders.
Try below command
brew install node
then
npm install
None of the tips I found here helped.
I had to reinstall nvm.
I am trying to do
npm install wrtc
with node version 16.14.0
but that's not getting done. It's giving
npm error code 1
So I was trying to change node version to previous lts which was 14.19.0 but it's not getting changed
I did...
node -v
nvm list
nvm use 14.19.0 => output - ***Now using node v14.19.0 (npm v8.5.3)***
node -v (version not changed... Still 16.14.0
nvm list - shows the arrow mark '->' still on system
Are you following these steps?
Please make sure that your npm version is correctly installed according to your node version.
I had node installed in my machine and everything was working fine. During an online course made in 2019, the instructor was using an earlier version of npm (v5.5.1) and advised everyone to use the same version with him for follow up reasons. So I downgraded to v5.5.1 but now I keep getting one same error (incompatibility) for almost all commands. I read some solutions to similar problems here and even tried extra steps but the problem still persists.
I uninstalled node from my system, restarted the system and reinstalled node but the version of npm still remained v5.5.1.
I tried to uninstall npm from the command line npm uninstall -g npm but it threw incompatibility error.
I searched the web for compatible version of node.js for npm v5.5.1 and got node v10.15.1 which I downloaded installed with several system restarts but my node and npm still remain incompatible. Please what can I do?
You should use nvm which is the Node Version Manager, cURL:
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh | bash
commands:
nvm install <version> Download and install a <version>
nvm use <version> Modify PATH to use <version>
nvm ls List versions (installed versions are blue)

When I did npm -v it showed version 7.something.
I just wanted to make sure I have the latest available, so I did npm install -g npm.
It seemed to work OK (it did go through a install/upgrade process) but when I now do npm -v it says 6.14.9.
What is the 'correct' or proper way to get the latest npm on macOS? And I mean in a global way (for my entire coding environment) so that any NodeJS project in any directory will universally use the latest npm.
FYI I'm using macOS Catalina 10.15.6.
npm 7 ships with Node.js 15.x but is not yet the default latest within the npm registry. Confusing! If you want the latest 7.x version of npm, you need to specify that you want version 7: npm install -g npm#7. Otherwise, it will give you the latest 6.x release.
I recommend using nvm to manage your node versions. It allows switching between projects with different versions without running into version issues.
With it, you can use nvm install node to install the latest one, or nvm ls-remote to list available versions for install.
I installed Node and npm as they are required to install angular cli.
Now, if I type this command:
npm install -g angular-cli
I get this message in terminal:
ERROR: npm is known not to run on Node.js v4.2.6 Node.js 4 is supported but the specific version you're running has a bug known to break npm. Please update to at least 4.7.0 to use this version of npm. You can find the latest release of Node.js at https://nodejs.org/
I also followed this link, but still the issue is not resolved.
I tried removing node, npm and then reinstalling, updating node according to all the ways I found on internet, but still the version(4.2.6) is same.
I don't understand what I am doing wrong as I am new to Linux.
Surprisingly, npm is quite complicated in Linux, until you discover Node Version Manager which allows you to easily install new versions and swap between them.
After installing nvm, you can install any node version with nvm install <VERSION_NUMBER> and you can set it as default with nvm alias default <VERSION_NUMBER>
You can swap between versions using nvm use <VERSION_NUMBER>
