npm ERR! cb.apply is not a function (Elementary OS) - node.js

I am very new to react native and nodejs . Today I installed nodejs on my Elementary Os and installed npm and npx. Now when I try to run npx create-react-app myApp i am getting the following error :
npm ERR! cb.apply is not a function npm ERR! A complete log of this
run can be found in: npm ERR!
/home/user/.npm/_logs/2021-04-29T08_55_29_599Z-debug.log Install for [
'create-react-project#latest' ] failed with code 1
I found some answers on stack overflow but they didn't solve this. Any help would be much appreciated.
npx version:10.2.2
npm version: 7.10.0
node version :16.0.0

I finally solved the error and i am going to keep this thread open if anyone else faces the same problem.
By default, npm installs packages in the local node_modules/ directory. Since npm i npm is shorthand for npm install npm, it will install the latest version of npm locally.
However, when run npm in a shell, the shell picks up the npm in your $PATH, which is probably the global installation.
To update the global installation of npm, run:
npm install --global npm

Installing dependencies with npm-peer-dependencies

I am trying to install the required node_modules for a small project running Angular 11 using npm install
My goal is get the project to work locally after downloading it from GitHub. I have already installed the latest version of the Angular CLI.
After running the install command I tried npm start.
I was expecting that after running the install and start command to be able to run the project locally.
However the actual result I get after running the install command is the following list of errors:
> ng serve

The problem is that this Angular project also has peer dependencies. I installed npm-install-peers package but it seems that simply running npm install afterwards will not install the required peer dependencies.
What should I do next to get this Angular project installed locally ?
The issue you are facing is likely because angular cli or npm-peer-dependencies are not installed globally on your machine.
The steps that you should take are to make sure of them are globally installed.
To install packages globally you need run npm install -g <package_name>
npm docs link
In your case for angular cli you should run
npm i -g #angular/cli#11.2.15 and npm install -g npm-peer-dependencies.
Then run npm start.

Cypress installation failed

I installed nodejs and npm on windows 10. Than I tried to install cypress via npm install cypress --save-dev and get the following Error:
> node index.js --exec install
The command "node" is either misspelled or
could not be found.
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! cypress#3.8.2 postinstall: `node index.js --exec install`

After this I added the path %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp to my system environment variables. But I get this error messages again. How can I fix this problem?
try the following steps :
install git on your machine and config it as global.
delete old package.js then re-init new package.
try again cypress install command
Try this instead by installing the previous version but Explicitly: npm install cypress#8.1.0 --save-dev
Download it in the any directory its a hack to download, if your proxy is properly configured and internet speed is good. it will download while doing npm install
wget https://cdn.cypress.io/desktop/7.6.0/win32-x64/cypress.zip
Provide the zip location
CYPRESS_INSTALL_BINARY=~/Downloads/cypress.zip npm install cypress
Remember to actually run the npm command inside your folder with the package.json.
Delete the package.json.
Again re build the package by npm init.
Install Cypress again by using npm install cypress --save-dev.

how to fix "expo-cli" issus on windows 10?

i want to install expo-cli on my windows 10 to start a new react native project : i have node js installed with version v10.15.0 but when i enter : "npm install -g expo-cli" but some issus and this are the kind of errors that appears after the installation

For me, I used yarn instead of npm.
yarn global add sharp
Then
yarn global add expo-cli
After that, if you run
expo
And got
expo is not a command
Which means you need to
add yarn global packages to the envirmonment variable. And your yarn global packages might in C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Yarn\bin.
Also, I installed python 2.7 in the beginning. Not sure if it helps.
After wasting almost 1 day, I resolved this issue, this error is due to sharp
If you are having issues during installation consider removing the directory C:\Users[user]\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache_libvips
npm install -g sharp # (The installation require python 2.7 on windows and path env configuration)
npm install -g expo-cli
Deleting the expo-cli folder in AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules then reinstalling expo worked for me.

How can I fix this?
On ubuntu 18.04 following steps saved me
To remove the distro-stable version, type the following:
sudo apt remove nodejs
This command will remove the package and retain the configuration files.
sudo apt purge nodejs
As a final step, you can remove any unused packages that were automatically installed with the removed package:
sudo apt autoremove
Refresh your local package index by typing:
sudo apt update
Enable the NodeSource repository by running the following command
(optinal) If you need to install another version, for example 14.x, just change setup_12.x with setup_14.x
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
Once the NodeSource repository is enabled, install Node.js and npm by typing:
sudo apt install nodejs
Verify that the Node.js and npm were successfully installed by printing their versions:
node --version (v12.18.4)
npm --version (6.14.6)
It seems to me that you're running a newer version of Node, but an outdated version of NPM.
You can do either of the following:
Try the latest stable version of NPM:
You can upgrade to the latest version of npm using: npm install -g npm#latest
Uninstall Node form your machine completely, go to their website and install the latest stable Node version. NPM comes with it.
I faced this issue too today and the problem was caused by an upgrade in my node and npm version. Guess my project dependencies were still running on older versions of node and npm
I fixed it by deleting the node_modules folder and run
npm install
I hope this helps
This looks like a permissions issue in your home directory. To reclaim ownership of the .npm directory execute:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm
Check the updates of dependencies
npm outdate
Run the next command to update dependencies
npm update
Remove the path folder directory C:\Users\ACER\AppData\Local**\npm-cache_logs\2021-12-29T13_41_22_984Z-debug-0.log**
and then run this command in your CLI npm install -g npm#latest
this works with you

npm not ok
Can someone please explain:
[1] why npm says `sudon't` and grunt docs says `do sudo`? And what is it all about?
[2] I want to install the grunt as a tool. Why does the message complains about missing package.json which is project-dependent (and I don't want to run grunt on any project, I want to install it globally first)?
[3] what can I do to make it install successfully?
The solution was quite tricky... I'm using ubuntu oneiric ocelot, which was still maintained one week ago (it's not that old). I installed node.js through default ubuntu packages and it turned out to be the problem - I got 0.4.9 version installed, which seems to be old, odd and strange (I had no experience with node.js before). I removed it and followed instructions from https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installing-Node.js-via-package-manager - added remote package repository and installed node.js from there. Now I've got a shiny 0.10.5 with sudo npm install working perfectly fine with no complaints.
