I followed the instructions on the Firebase Website but I do the npm install, I login and then I do firebase serve and receive the following error.
Error: Failed to load gRPC binary module because it was not installed for the current system
Expected directory: node-v57-darwin-x64-unknown
Found: [node-v64-darwin-x64-unknown]
This problem can often be fixed by running "npm rebuild" on the current system
I have tried suggestions such as running npm rebuild, and deleting the node_modules as suggested here however the problem still persists. Any Ideas of what can be done to fix this. I've been using firebase for a while and only recently have I been encountering problems like this thank you for all of your help.
open a terminal / command prompt / CLI from your functions folder and issue the following command:
npm audit fix
I just upgraded to node version 9.0.0 and am now getting this error in the command line when trying to use npm install
npm ERR! code MODULE_NOT_FOUND
npm ERR! Cannot find module 'internal/util/types'
I'm using:
OSX 10.10.5
Node version 9.0.0
NPM version 5.5.1
Extra information: I am also trying to do this with a Laravel 5.5 project. This is how I update my version of node: How do I update Node.js?
run
rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm
and then re-install Node.js will work in most cases
Leaving this here for anyone using the n nodejs version manager:
$ n 6.12.0 # Go back to a stable release
$ npm install -g npm#latest # Update npm to latest
$ n lts # Get 8.9.1
$ npm install #Should work now.
The MODULE_NOT_FOUND error seems to happen when changing between node versions and some files are possibly still being cached. I am not sure exactly but the above sequence of commands work for me.
When I first got this, I solved just running "npm install" again to make sure everything was installed.
I got similar error also on Windows 8 after I have just upgraded node js. First: how I ran into the issue then the solution that worked for me.
How I ran to the issue:
When I did npm --version and node --version I discovered that I wass running npm v3.x and node 5.x. So I went to nodejs.org site from where I downloaded node-v8.11.3-x64.msi. After installing the msi package I confirmed that my nodejs version was now v8.11.3 via node --version command.
Then, when I ran "npm install http-server" (w/o the quotes) that's when I got the issue:
npm ERR!
node v8.11.3
npm ERR! npm v3.5.3
npm ERR! code MODULE_NOT_FOUND
My resolution:
I did some research including on the internet and found out that the npm version pointed to in my path was the one in my roaming profile C:\Users[myname.hostname]\AppData\Roaming\npm. In other words, the npm being used is not the one in the updated package I have just installed which is located in C:\Program Files\nodejs.
The resolution was to delete npm and npm-cache in the roaming folder. Note, I used cygwin as I was not able to delete these folders via Windows cmd prompt. With cygwin, I navigated to
cd "C:\Users[myname.hostname]\AppData\Roaming"
Then I removed the aforementioned folders like so
rm -rf npm-cache
rm -rf npm
After that, I opened a new Windows cmd prompt and was able to now successfully install http-server like so:
npm install http-server
Hope this works for you.
For me it was package installation issue, so I just write,
npm i or npm install in the root of the application.
to open the terminal in the root of the application, if you're using VS-code right click on the package.json and click on Open in integrated terminal.
I founded this problem too, so I found that I have imported wrong module instead of express module I had imported router module after I had replaced this two my code work as well
If all the above solutions doesn’t work check for any blank spaces in your folder/file where you copied the path
Make sure you are inside the project folder.
Rename the folder "node_modules" to any other name (for example: node_modules_old).
Run command: "npm i" (the command will build new the folder node_modules).
Try running your program again.
If the problem is resolved and your program is running correct, delete the old folder node_modules.
If you are using libraries make sure to install everything with npm or yarn before starting. And in cases of you files if you are going to use them make sure to do the export.module thing everytime.
If you are working with Local modules then don't have node_modules. All things go well in a easy way.
But if you want to work with both local and node_modules then use
.mjs (extension) - For modules
.cjs (extension) - For common scripts which you want to run with node
in which you can use require statements like
var http = require('http');
var fs = require('fs');
but if using .js extension then use
import http from "http"
import fs from "fs"
And also your package.json for type
Haa well, I have spent two days on this and have done everything I can to fix this issue even tried resetting the system but none of them reloved the issue.
And accidentally found out what was causing this issue, it is because of & in my parent folder name. File hierarchy R&D>remix>blog, When I was trying to run the blog server it was throwing module not found, require stack error.
code: ←[32m'MODULE_NOT_FOUND'←[39m,
requireStack: []
Solution: I have changed the parent folder name to RnD and it fixed the issue. If the file name contains any special characters(even parent folders) try updating it. In my case, it is &
The MODULE_NOT_FOUND error happened to me and even running npm install the error persisted.
Try to do this
For me, what worked was deleting the node_modules folder
rm -r -f node_modules/
After that, run the command to install the package.json dependencies
npm install
What happened to me was that when I ran npm install for the first time I had a very low internet connection and therefore I believe that the packages from package.json were not downloaded correctly and due to that the MODULE_NOT_FOUND error occurred. The funny thing is that just running the npm install command has no effect because it understands that the package is already there but it isn't. Similar as a corrupted data. In my case the npm update was without effect too.
If when you are using React And getting this error message. You can use this ,
NPM
npm install #reduxjs/toolkit
Yarn
yarn add #reduxjs/toolkit
i have problem when install ionic 2 with windows 10. i have installed npm LST version and type
npm install -g ionic cordova
but get an error
npm ERR! Cannot read property 'path' of null
what a problem, i also do npm cache clean also not working.
Whenever I have problems with installation of packages due to errors related to paths, I just go directly to the folder where node_modules is installed and delete it manually.
In your case, look for the ionic and cordova folders in C:\Users\juand\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules.
Delete them and run ionic -v and cordova -v to make sure that you get the message "'ionic' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".
Now you can run npm i -g ionic cordova again and it will start the process from scratch and you will never see that error message again.
This happens because when packages get updated, the folder structure may have changed, hence the old path won't work. Cheers
I am getting Error: Cannot find module 'pretty-bytes' error on my mac machine when I do yo gulp-angular.
Not able to run gulp serve after getting this error
When you have a Error: Cannot find module it means that you're trying to require a package that is not installed yet.
Open a terminal then cd in your project root. When you're in your projet root you can install the module by executing npm install pretty-bytes.
You should also consider adding it to your package.json file either in the dependencies or the devDependencies.
I've got a problem starting npm modules f.e. ionic, cordova, protractor. When I write something f.e.like:
ionic serve
It response with:
zsh: command not found: ionic
I installed these modules globally npm install -g ionic and locally npm install ionic, but the output is still the same. Also I tried to run them locally in directory ./node_modules/.bin/ again the same result. Another thing, that I've tried to change path of installation like here Cannot run ionic. receives "No command 'ionic' found", but didn't get the needed result. I still think, that the reason is in path, that npm installs modules, in my case it's ~/npm/bin. Thanks in advance.
Try using bash and running the same command.
