I was trying to install npm atob in my project;but suddenly it is showing an error now as:

but when i searched the most of them have answered as "Fix your system time"
try to correct your system time before to get a valid certification.
Else try to change the version of nodeJs
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable
The 'btoa-atob' module does not export a programmatic interface, it only provides command line utilities.
If you need to convert to Base64 you could do so using Buffer:
console.log(new Buffer('Hello World!').toString('base64'));
Reverse (assuming the content you're decoding is a utf8 string):
console.log(new Buffer(b64Encoded, 'base64').toString());
The error code is CERT_NOT_YET_VALID -certificate is not yet valid, and it refers to ssl certificate.
This should fix this error
$ npm config set strict-ssl false
$ npm config set unsafe-perm true
$ npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

i have reinstall node with version 7.2.1
after every time this occurs when i download any package
need suggestion related to null path error
I ran into this issue while installing gulp
My NPM and Node Versions are:
node v7.7.4
npm v4.1.2
In npm version 4x, https client certificates were made required rather than optional. Details are in their github area.
Long story short, what helped for me was running the following command:
npm config set strict-ssl false
Once this was done, running the command
npm install gulp -g
Worked like a charm for me!
If you are working behind proxy, you need to set proxy for nodejs
npm config set proxy http://proxy_host:port
npm config set https-proxy http://proxy_host:port
Hope it Helps.. :)
npm install command is used to install packages.
Reason for your error :
You don't have any package.json in your current working directory.
Also, you didn't provide any package name to install from.
Tips :
Check out https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/install for more details.
Never use -g (install dependency globally unless you intend to).
I am trying to install one of my own packages as follows
npm install --save gfarrell/state.js
and I'm getting the following errors (full log here):
npm ERR! addLocal Could not install gfarrell/state.js
npm ERR! Error: ENOENT, stat 'gfarrell/state.js'

Now I've tried various solutions including:
npm cache clean
sudo npm cache clean
rm -rf ~/.npm
sudo npm install --save gfarrell/state.js
npm install --save git://github.com/gfarrell/state.js.git
but nothing has changed the error output. I can't see anything wrong with the module's package.json, and I haven't added anything to my local package.json either. I actually tried installing this package on an earlier version and it worked fine, so I just don't understand what is going wrong.
Needless to say, it's all rather frustrating. Is there something else going on that I'm just not seeing?
This is most probably an authentication issue. You should add --verbose to the install command to se more output. You should see this line in your console output when running with verbose on:
npm ERR! git clone git#github.com:gfarrell/state.js Permission denied (publickey).
Check if you are authenticated to Github using the following command:
ssh -T git#github.com
When you are authenticated correctly you should see the following output:
Hi gfarrell! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.
Github has a great guide on SSH keys as well as how to solve common errors.
Fix your Github authentication and the npm install will start working.
I had a similar issue myself. Because the last "ok" line of the verbose output started with "addRemoteGit", I traced the issue to a function named addRemoteGit in the npm source file cache.js (in v1.4.9, it has now been moved into add-remote-git.js). By adding a call to log.verbose(p), I found out npm could not write to ~/.npm/_git-remotes/.
Basically it was a permission problem: my ~/.npm directory contained files & directories owned by root. I solved the issue by simply running:
sudo find ~/.npm -exec chown $USER:$USER {} \;
I've just rebuild my Mavericks (Mac OS X Version 9.4) machine from scratch. I am the administrator and only user of this machine.
I installed Git via their git-2.0.1-intel-universal-snow-leopard.pkg (http://git-scm.com/downloads) in their default /usr/local/git/bin/git location.
I installed Node via their node-v0.10.30.pkg (http://nodejs.org/download/) in their default /usr/local/bin/node location.
The final step of Node's installer package included a note that they also installed NPM in their default /usr/local/bin/npm location.
My $PATH echoes /usr/local/git/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin (it contains /usr/local/bin).

Running similar installations (npm install -g yo, npm install -g grunt, npm install -g nvm, npm install -g npm) results in what appears to be the same list of errors.
Several people online suggest forcing the installation via sudo, but several others warn this could cause later issues. The manuals for these packages seem not to mention requirement of sudo, and in some cases, they have advised contacting NPM when this issue arises.
Running npm cache clear does not correct the issue.
Running ls -la in the home (~) directory shows my Mac OS X username as the owner of my .npm directory: drwxr-xr-x 15 admin staff 510 Aug 11 23:53 .npm
Does anyone know what has gone wrong and how to correct this? Thank you.
By the way, I solved this issue by changing the owner of /usr/local to be myself, in order to allow NPM to modules in its default location without further requiring sudo for each package's installation.
sudo chown -R `whoami` /usr/local
EACCES is an error of not having access on doing an operation.
Taken the line: npm ERR! Error: EACCES, mkdir '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bower' we can see that npm was unable to create a directory in the given location.
The reason is very likely that you are not running the command as super user. In fact, the error log is even suggesting that:
npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator.
To run as administrator, you have to prefix those commands with sudo. That is:
sudo npm install -g bower. You will be required to type in a password for security reasons.
to start fresh remove prior node.js and npm installs as well as these :
~/.npmrc
~/.npm
~/tmp
~/.npm-init.js
to install nodejs and npm as yourself NOT root do these commands (linux) :
mkdir ${HOME}/bin
download source from : http://nodejs.org/download/
cd v0.10.30/
./configure --prefix=${HOME}/bin/nodejs
make -j8
make install
which puts it into dir defined by above --prefix
export PATH=${HOME}/bin/nodejs/bin:$PATH
NODE_PATH so node can find dir for modules otherwise
npm install xxx will put newly installed module into dir in curr dir :
export NODE_PATH=${HOME}/bin/nodejs/lib/node_modules
do above AND use syntax : npm install xxxxx -g
always use the -g for global
nodejs install gives you npm as well :
ls -la ${HOME}/bin/nodejs/bin
I'd recommend that you install Node.js using a version manager such as nvm. This way, you kill two birds with one stone:
First, you can manage multiple versions of Node.js on the same machine (which you will want to do sooner or later).
Second, you get around all the access problems you experience when installing Node.js without it. At least that's my experience.
Basically it's as easy as running
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.24.1/install.sh | bash
from the command line.
(SOLUTION ANSWER)
Hi Guys,
I had the same problem on my MacBook Pro 2018. After trie installing any dependency globally (with "-g" or "--global") I did receive an issue "EACCES" error (it's about permissions)
You could simply add "sudo" before your commands what will force it.
For example:
sudo npm install gulp -g
or
sudo npm install browser-sync -g
Enjoy!
It's generally not advised to run sudo unless absolutely necessary.
For issues like this, NPM can solve many issues, and allow multiple node versions to be used, and selected depending upon your use case.
I had a similar issue setting up a new machine, and installing NPM took care of the issue.

You can bypass https using below commands:
npm config set strict-ssl false
or set the registry URL from https or http like below:
npm config set registry="http://registry.npmjs.org/"
However, Personally I believe bypassing https is not the real solution, but we can use it as a workaround.
npm ERR! node -v v0.8.0
npm ERR! npm -v 1.1.32
Update your node.js installation.The following commands should do it (from here):
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable
Edit: okay, if you really have a good reason to run an ancient version of the software, npm set ca null will fix the issue. It happened, because built-in npm certificate has expired over the years.
I had same problem and finally I understood that my node version is old. For example, you can install the current active LTS node version in Ubuntu by the following steps:
sudo apt-get update
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install nodejs -y
Installation instructions for more versions and systems can be found in the following link:
https://github.com/nodesource/distributions/blob/master/README.md
I think I got the reason for the above error. It is the corporate proxy(virtual private network) provided in order to work in the client network. Without that connection I frequently faced the same problem be it maven build or npm install.
If you're behind a corporate proxy, try this setting for npm with your company's proxy:
npm --https-proxy=http://proxy.company.com install express -g
Since i stumbled on the post via google:
Try using npm ci it will be much than an npm install.
From the manual:
In short, the main differences between using npm install and npm ci are:
The project must have an existing package-lock.json or npm-shrinkwrap.json.
If dependencies in the package lock do not match those in package.json, npm ci will exit with an error, instead of updating the package lock.
npm ci can only install entire projects at a time: individual dependencies cannot be added with this command.
If a node_modules is already present, it will be automatically removed before npm ci begins its install.
It will never write to package.json or any of the package-locks: installs are essentially frozen.
Reinstall node, then update npm.
First I removed node
apt-get purge node
Then install node according to the distibution. Docs here .
Then
npm install npm#latest -g
Only recommended if you are running a very old version of node/npm where the certificates have expired or been replaced,
first run npm set ca null
then do your npm install
I'm trying to install the meteorite. I've success to install nodejs(v0.10.7).and when I type 'sudo npm install -g meteorite'. It comes the error below. I think it may exist some problem with npm(1.2.21). But I do not how to solve it. And I use ubuntu12.10 64bit. Any ideas?

For those who landed here first like me, this is usually an issue with a tmp folder in your root directory followed by npm trying to install from the cache. This should fix it:
rm -rf ~/tmp
sudo npm cache clear
sudo npm install -g meteorite
If you still get the ENOTDIR error you can try making the directory yourself, clearing the cache, and reinstalling, but it looks like removing the tmp folder usually does the trick.
Props to Coombesy for posting this solution here.
