I am installing bcrypt for my project to use salting in hash function using the command -
npm i bcrypt#3.0.2
My current node version is 10.16.0
I have installed nvm to update my previous node version from 10.15.3
but while installing I am getting these errors-
"node" is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE

Update
I have managed to install the bcrypt package but the issue mentioned is still present. Actually, I am using windows OS and for running these commands I was using Hyper as terminal, which is creating these errors. I tried to run the bcrypt install command using Administrative privileges through PowerShell and it was successful, without any errors.
I tried to install a few more packages(like passport, express-session, etc) through Hyper and I am facing somewhat similar errors, but when I run those in PowerShell, it works just fine.
I have managed to make things work for me, but I still don't understand the logic behind this. If anyone has any idea about it, please share and then I can close this.
There are a lot of bug reports at the official repository about this - have you made sure that you've read the full installation instructions for this library, including the installation of some build tools? Maybe running the following line in a command line with admin privileges already helps?
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
hi try this command line maybe its will help you
npm install bcrypt#3 --save
I'm sure this isn't the first time you've run into this issue. I've researched over google, youtube, and stackoverflow on this issue, and it seems like this is an isolated incident. I don't know if it's an issue with versions, but I have been taking the Pluralsight course on Angular with Deborah K. I downloaded her Github version of the boilerplate starting files from https://github.com/DEborahK/Angular-GEttingStarted
I followed the course and installed the dependences from the package.json file using the integrated terminal. When I tried to run the script npm start which translates into ng serve -o I get this error message:
apm#0.0.0 start /Users/mateo/Desktop/projects/angular

Is there a best practice way to troubleshoot these kind of issues? Is there a better way to run these scripts or should I use a sandbox VMware linux install to run these fresh instead of running off my Macbook? Any help is appreciated! Thank you!
I was able to fix this issue by deleting all of the node_modules and re-installing the AngularCLI from scratch off of the Angular website.

I tried a number of things (installing VS C++ redistrib, npm install --msvs_version=2013, etc). Nothing seems to work.
Do you have any ideas how I can find out the actual error (the log is a bit daunting).
UPDATE: What I ended up doing was reverting from Node v4.0.0 to NODE v0.12. This is not really a fix to the issue, but it got me around my issues.
Go to: (http://www.devdocs.io) look # the npm section. Must use desktop, must use windows if possible (Mac layout is weird for some reason) Follow the steps detailed for "resetting npm cache"
Node-gyp is a P.I.T.A. and often blows up installs among other things. I have a horrible time with it every time I come back to an environment I haven't used in a while and try to use it again.
Alternatively, you can uninstall node, and attempt to reinstall using chocolatey if you're on windows or brew if you're on a mac. Make sure you sudo commands when installing to mac.
You're most likely going to have to clean out the npm cache, possibly reinstall nodejs, and possibly reinstall node-gyp.
NOTE: Before you go about the above mentioned steps, first make sure that your configurations are compatible, including your python version for node-gyp. (https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-gyp) Also, I have solved the C++ redistributable issues several times without touching anything C++ related, just so you know this error is not indicative of C++, but rather local settings and compatible software versions that interact with node + npm NOT C++ related (for instance, your python version interacting with node-gyp)
There is no straightforward "run this and that" to fix, you kind of have to muddle through it, and I can promise you that you'll have to do it more than once. But the more you fix node + npm + node-gyp, the more able you will be to quickly remedy all issues in the future. The links above should sort you out no problem though. Just walk through them slowly and thoroughly as instructed.
All i did is uninstall node and install it again, and during the installation, check the box telling you to install the needed dependencies and complete your installation.
If it persists, locate the package that is causing this error and install it seperately.
Example:
npm install -g node-gyp
npm install bcrypt
What does ELIFECYCLE mean?
Here's my app code: https://gist.github.com/samholmes/388ca4552c5936b52c5d
When I run the 'blast-emails' command, it will run for a while until shortly crashing with the error:

I'm looking for one of two answers: What does ELIFECYCLE mean? (or) Why am I getting the error in my application code?
It's basically saying it fails to spawn your process not due to permission but to an error in your script. Source
You don't have any problem executing NODE_ENV=production node app.js ?
One might think this is because outdated versions of npm and node, but it's not the case.
Just as Pierre Inglebert says, if you look into the source you can see that End of lifecycle means the program unexpectedly stopped. This can have various reasons. So it's not a syntax error and not an expected exception/error.
The error appeared to me when a different tool was already using the http port (3000) defined in my node scripts. When you run your node app on port 80, make sure you have stopped Apache webserver (as an example).
In my case, it was because of low RAM memory, when a photo compression library was unable to process bigger photos.
While working on a WordPress theme, I got the same ELIFECYCLE error with slightly different output:

npm ERR! Tell the author that this fails on your system:
npm ERR! bower install && gulp build
After trying npm install one more time with the same result, I tried bower install. When that was successful I tried gulp build and that also worked.
Everything is working just fine now. No idea why running each command separately worked when && failed but maybe someone else will find this answer useful.
If you came here like I did, after receiving a similar error when trying the React Getting Started guide, you might like to know that the problem could have been caused by not having installed Watchman. Download it here, or install it with Homebrew with brew install watchman and try again: https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/install.html
PS: You might want to do a brew update first.
When running Webpack build I was getting similar error because node doesn't understand async await keywords on older versions. I added webpack babel-plugin-transform-async-to-generator and it was solved. This replaces them with promises.

I had the same error after I installed new packages or updated them:
...
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
...
It helped me to run installation command once again or a couple of times.
After that, the error disappeared.
I had this issue when I was running two projects that had the same set up and I already had one running. This meant that the other project couldn't use that port number. As soon as I stopped the other project running I had no issues.
This issue can also occur when you pull code from git and not yet installed node modules "npm install".
The Windows solution is the same as the Linux sudo answer. Run the npm start (or whatever) as Administrator. I had added a new module to my project. Worked on some machines but on others that were more locked down, not so much. Took a while to figure it out but the new module needed access to "something" that wasn't available without administrator permissions.
I had the same error code when I was running npm run build inside node docker container.
Locally it was working while inside a container I had set option to throw error when there is a warning during compilation while locally it wasn't set. So this error can mean anything that is connected with stopping the process being done by NPM
In my case I generated a similar error when I copied the project over from another directory. some hidden files, like the critical .babelrc, were missing. SO ahhh... make sure you copy all the files!
:)
For me it was a ternary statement:
It was complaining about this line in particular, about the semicolon:
let num_coin = val.num_coin ? val.num_coin || 2;
I changed it to:
let num_coin = val.num_coin || 2;
Likewise, I saw this error as a result of too little RAM. I cranked up the RAM on the VM and the error disappeared.
I found the solution here - https://javahowtos.com/guides/124-docker/418-npm-exit-status-137-when-building-a-docker-image.html
It says - The cause of this specific npm error status usually means that Docker is going out of memory. So, when this happens, the Linux kernel just kills the process.
if you are running on ubuntu, please check your nodejs version. please update the version to the latest and clear the cache and reinstall the modules (npm install) and build.
or otherwise
please upgrade your RAM size and try again. it'll work sure.
First, you will have to remove the npm cache and upgrade to the latest version of the node and npm will resolve the issue.
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n install n
sudo n stable
The first command will force clean the npm package manager's cache, After the second and third commands, a stable version of the node and npm will be installed. then you can execute npm i and npm run build for creating an optimized production build.
This solution worked for the same error on the npm run build command in nextjs.

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.
