npm Json parsing error for @angular/cli installation


I'm trying to install angular 6 with:
$ npm install -g @angular/cli@latest

Using
node -v - v8.11.1
npm -v - 6.0.1
OS - Linux (Mint 18)

Getting this error:

npm ERR! Unexpected end of JSON input while parsing near '...um":"7e1bd7294bd522da'

Note: Have already tried npm cache verify and npm cache clean --force


Solution

  • This seems like a problem with your node/npm and not with Angular CLI.

    Just completely uninstall the Node.js from Programs and Features and Re-install it,Make sure that you completely deleted all the node-modules and npm caches in the Npm folder and not present anywhere else
