I know how to fix it. Run: node ./node_modules/esbuild/install.js.
This should be written in package.json, but the custom package.json does not have this sentence, so you can run it manually.

Check npm config get ignore-scripts. Your npm config seems to ignore esbuild's postinstall hook.

If that's not the problem, try installing esbuild directly in a fresh project - if that doesn't work also, then it's a esbuild bug and should be reported to esbuild instead.

npm config get ignore-scripts returns false. manually run esbuild/install.js can fix the problem indeed. why it's ignored since the ignore-scripts is empty?

It turns out npm v7 has a bug that corrupts package-lock.json files: npm/cli#2606. When this happens, packages like esbuild with post install scripts can break. You may be experiencing this bug. A workaround is to delete and recreate your package-lock.json file.

yes，this is right

I had this exact error but for a different reason. I was on a machine with App Locker enable and it prevented the execution of esbuild.exe.

Just run npm install esbuild that's all

这个是vite的bug还是npm的bug

[lihanspace]

package-lock.json 中 "node_modules/esbuild" 缺少 "hasInstallScript": true , 所以esbuild的install.js没有运行生成esbuild.exe
这个是npm生成packag-lock.json时出错了吗？还是说需要自己进行配置

[sakura-he]

node ./node_modules/esbuild/install.js

node ./node_modules/esbuild/install.js 为啥我运行这一句也不行了呢？？呃

[zhangenming]

相同的问, 需要执行node ./node_modules/esbuild/install.js

所以这不是BUG吗 不修一下吗

[KenetGaona115]

it works for me
