Missing modules when running npm run build or npm install #780

tylerfoulkes · 2016-03-26T18:02:43Z

Hi,
I am working on a foundation press project and I am trying to get it all setup and working. I have cloned the preexisting repository howoever every time I run pretty much any npm command I get the following output:

foundationpress@2.3.0 build /path/to/foundation/project
gulp build

module.js:327
throw err;
^

I have uninstalled nodeJS completely and reinstalled it again. It seems that I must have large dependency missing because every time I try to install the module that it says its missing it just complains about another module missing. Im a bit new to these package managers but aren't supposed to take care of all the dependencies?

Do you get errors when you run npm install?

tylerfoulkes · 2016-03-26T22:19:07Z

@colin-marshall
Ya, npm install throws this error.

colin-marshall · 2016-03-26T23:10:01Z

The error in the original post is from running npm run build. I want to see the error from npm install

Please do the following:
rm -rf node_modules
npm install
provide the contents of that error message

Thanks.

colin-marshall · 2016-03-31T01:05:23Z

@tylerfoulkes did you figure it out?

tylerfoulkes · 2016-03-31T01:07:19Z

Yes that worked perfect, thank you! Sorry I didn't respond earlier.

colin-marshall · 2016-03-31T01:08:01Z

No worries! Just making sure you got it sorted out. Feel free to close the issue if it's resolved. Thanks!

clementcrownrise · 2016-08-31T07:17:18Z

@colin-marshall , I am having the same error, I am using a windows 8 system, but it is as if the command rm -rf node_modules is not recorgnized on windows.

venkatavinash · 2016-08-31T19:32:33Z

@clementcrownrise , rm -rf is linux command to remove the directory i.e., node_modules in this case. You can try deleting node_modules and do "npm install" again. Hope it works!

oranb83 · 2016-09-14T12:33:17Z

if it doesn't work it could be a linking problem like I had. Try to uninstall npm and install it again, it should fix the problem.

Desdichado · 2016-09-20T06:03:06Z

In windows you could probably use rmdir /s node_modules instead of rm -rf node_modules.

imsantosh · 2016-11-12T06:36:48Z

Aravin · 2017-05-26T19:37:54Z

I am also getting same error!

yugensoft · 2017-05-28T14:46:10Z

Firstly, npm on windows is just horrible. I know your pain.
Secondly, it's telling you what to do: npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator
Open the cmd.exe with right click -> run as administrator

dominicxowino · 2017-07-14T15:06:37Z

having the same problem here.

colin-marshall · 2017-11-26T05:25:42Z

@dnorton94 are you even using FoundationPress? You don't build FoundationPress with node app.js which makes me think you using a completely different Node app.

Regardless, I think you are probably in the wrong directory if you are trying to run a Node app from the C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory. You need to be in the directory app.js is in.

zhangshichuan · 2017-11-26T05:36:29Z

@clementcrownrise Directly open the installed folder (node_modules). Right-click to remove it

FlatspinZA · 2017-11-26T08:57:07Z

BTW, chaps, for those of you who don't use Linux/Mac, just so you know - Windows has a huge problem with the deep file system created in node_modules & will very often refuse to remove the entire directory, even from PowerShell using Administrative privileges.

One solution is "Unlocker", but then people who aren't paying attention install other unnecessary applications on their PC, and the other irritation is that it often requires a system reboot to perform the operation.

In Windows 10, fortunately, we can install 'Windows Subsystem for Linux' via 'Control Panel >> Programs & Features >> Turn Windows Features On or Off'.

There is a tutorial on installation here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install-win10, and afterwards users can then perform native Linux commands on their Windows folders using Bash from the Command Prompt, eliminating the need for pesky workarounds to delete files Windows battles with.

@imsagarj and everybody else that replies to this issue from here forward. Please state the following:

Node version
FoundationPress version

If you are not using FoundationPress, please do not look for help in this thread. https://github.com/npm/npm is a better place to get help on this issue. Thanks!

I am getting this error. Help please.

colin-marshall · 2018-01-29T18:54:32Z

This issue keeps getting responses from people that aren't using FoundationPress, so I'm going to lock conversation since we can't help you with issues that aren't related FoundationPress.

There is one solution in this thread that seems to have helped a lot of people (delete node_modules and reinstall), so I'll leave it here to make sure it is seen:

rm -rf node_modules
npm install

If you are using FoundationPress and still have this issue, feel free to open a new one. For the rest of you, https://github.com/npm/npm is a better place to get help on the issue if the above solution does not work.
