When I try to start. npm install - g react-native-cli. I am taking this error. What can I do?
This is simply a permission problem. Basically NPM is trying to write to a directory that is owned by root. There are a few ways to get around this.
You can use the recommended solution from the docs here. Basically it suggest you use a package manager. For example Home Brew is a great one if you are using OSX.
You can install the packages using sudo. This could cause you other problems though and a lot of people freak out about this. In other words,
sudo npm install - g react-native-cli
You could update the permissions on this folder allowing you to install things to it. This would mean that your user has the right to write to /usr/local/lib/. Type this command into the terminal,
sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local
Sometimes depending on your system different steps need to be taken. This is actually a very common problem and typically happens to us when we update our systems OS. If this is the first time you have seen this chances are you will see it again. So try and look around and read about the problem. You will notice a lot of the times the solution is to use something like homebrew to install things. Sometimes homebrew can have a permission problem when a new OS comes out. These solutions are always some combination of chown or chmod to give a user's account write access to a specific directory.
For more information on HomeBrew please see this link.
i have same issue with this but i just typing npm install -g install-react-native-app then i put sudo in the front so seem like this sudo npm install -g install-react-native-app and the file is work.

I believe you're trying to install a global package on your system by using npm install -g nodemon, then got permission denied, which is shown in error message.
You can't install a global package without root permission. If you want to do so, just execute it with root permission, like using sudo: sudo npm i -g nodemon or switch to root then execute again.
This looks like a permissions issue in your home directory. To reclaim ownership of the node_modules directory execute:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/node_modules
Node.js error EACCES means you don't have access to the path it's specifying. In this case, /usr/local/lib/... is owned by the root user. See the command output here:
$ ls -l /usr/local/lib
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Apr 7 23:45 node_modules
Nobody but root is allowed to write to the node_modules folder. This can be solved by prefixing your npm command with sudo to run the command as root.

I am new to Linux and I am trying to get set-up with nodejs, but I have not been able to figure out why I can't install react. I am following directions that I have seen on the web, but I am wondering why I seem to not have the privileges necessary to install react. It's a personal environment, so I wasn't expecting any issue. Below is what I have run and the final error that the last line gave me.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install nodejs
sudo npm install npm
node -v
v8.10.0
npm -v
3.5.2
sudo npm install npm#latest -g
npm -v
6.10.0
npm install -g create-react-app
Everything above runs just fine until the last command. Then I get the following error, regardless of working directory.

Using npx (with npm 5.2+)
If you're using npm 5.2+, you may create a ReactJS app like below:
npx create-react-app my-app
Now your app is in a folder my-app, you can cd into the folder and run npm start.
Using older versions of npm with npm install
You may also install it with a global install with npm, infact for older npm versions (< 5.2) the official documentation for create-react-app links to instructions by Dan Abramov (#co-author of create-react-app):
npm install -g create-react-app
However you may need sudo for a global -g install or work around it
Everything above runs just fine until the last command. Then I get the following error, regardless of working directory.
That's because your last command is a global install (-g).
Unless there is a reason against, you may install it with sudo:
sudo npm install -g create-react-app
To install without sudo, please refer to this question: npm throws error without sudo
I was also having this issue, here is how it was resolved
Make sure you have npm installed or use:
sudo apt install npm
Then
sudo npm -g install create-react-app
To create the app I did not use 'npm' before the command line, instead use this:
create-react-app nameofyourapp
That worked for me.

How should I install Node globally?
I have seen those files and they are owned by root. I put a new version of Ubuntu 18.04 I installed node Could it be problem when installing node? I do not remember how I did it, but on previous occasions I did not have this permission problem. I do not know if I should uninstall node and npm I have to install it in a way that I can access from any project I do. I already gave another file problems and I corregi using sudo, but it does not seem like a practice, because it should not give problems, never gave them node. What do you advise me to do to correct the problem and access node_modules without using sudo? Maybe I should uninstall and install it in another way? Thank you, I hope you understand my need, forgive the syntax but I must use the translator. Thank you.
I would advice you the 2 definitive ways given in the npm documenation
1)Reinstall npm with a version manager (recommended)
2)Change npm's default directory manually.
please visit https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/fixing-npm-permissions
could anyone advise what I should do please?
My node and npm version as follows:
$ viviantekiMacBook-Air-2:~ Vivi1an$ node -v

I have downloaded node.js in a local folder to use Babel, not sure if this has anything to do with it?
Many thanks!
sudo npm install -g #angular/cli
i have the same problem I give way perhaps work with you
This is how to solve it. Run this command:
sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules
sudo means we are running this command as root, the system super user. This is because we don’t have permission to write to that folder, but root will be able to fix any permission. This command also means the system will ask for your password to confirm.
chown is the command we use to change the owner of a file or folder. We set the -R option to change the owner recursively, so we also get owner access to all the files already contained in there.
$USER is an environment variable automatically set to your username.
And the final piece is the folder path.
Running this path will make the folder yours, so you can safely run your npm install -g commands!
i go with the previous answer i put it and i install angular well,
but i appear for me another maybe also related with
npm audit
for resolve, it follows this question link answer

i hope is a benefit for you
I am using the node serialport library, which needs to be installed using the --unsafe-perm and --build-from-source arguments. I only wants those arguments to be used when installing serialport. If I run the following on the command line it works fine:
sudo npm install serialport#5.0.0 --unsafe-perm --build-from-source
Based on this post, my understanding is that you accomplish that by using the preinstall script, like so:
"preinstall": "sudo npm install serialport#5.0.0 --unsafe-perm --build-from-source"
However, I'm getting the following error when I run that:
npm ERR! Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/Users/test/node_modules/.staging'
npm ERR! at Error (native)
npm ERR! { Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/Users/test/node_modules/.staging'
npm ERR! at Error (native)
npm ERR! errno: -13,
npm ERR! code: 'EACCES',
npm ERR! syscall: 'mkdir',
npm ERR! path: '/Users/test/node_modules/.staging' }
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator.
So it's not running as root event though I have sudo specified in the command?
How do I get serialport installed through package.json with those flags?
Okay, this took a while to figure out, but I think I get it now.
It turns out that when you have a package.json file that contains a preinstall or postinstall script that you are executing as root, npm will run this with reduced permissions. You have to include the --unsafe-perms flag to let it execute the script as root. So the long and short is that you need to run
sudo npm i --unsafe-perm
or you can create a .npmrc file with this entry:
unsafe-perm = true
If you go the .npmrc route you don't have to specify --unsafe-perm on the command line.
Of course, all of this is only necessary when you are running npm i as root, which isn't really safe. So if you create a regular user and give them full access to the directly in which you are installing your packages, you don't have to worry about --unsafe-perm.
As for --build-from-source, you don't have to worry about that either because when electron-rebuild realizes that it can't download the appropriate package for your environment, it will build it for you.
