How do I install firebase cloud functions, am I doing something wrong? Hosting works perfectly. I don't understand what's happening, never seen this before...

I have the same problem above. Please fix it. I think this is because grpc@1.4.1 install file has been remove on the server, so the tools could not install it.

NPM install errors are outside the purview of what we can really help with, unfortunately. I'd recommend you get on the latest (stable) Node version (v8.X) as well as the latest version of NPM:

npm install -g npm@latest

[Levelleor]

@mbleigh Wait, what am I supposed to do then? I have the latest node and npm versions and you're telling me there is nothing you can do? At least give me some list of actions that could definitely fix this even if they require some reinstalls.

node -v
v8.9.1
npm -v
5.6.0

[mbleigh]

Please follow up on grpc/grpc-node#121 -- I'm trying to consolidate grpc install issues there.
