Vue-fontawesome with Yarn


I've installed all the dependencies to use Font-Awesome with Vue. Nevertheless, I get this error when running yarn:

error An unexpected error occurred: "https://npm.fontawesome.com/@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core/-/1.2.34/fontawesome-svg-core-1.2.34.tgz: Request failed \"401 Unauthorized\"".

I'm using the free version of Font-Awesome.

Someone has any idea why?


Solution

  • EDIT: To solve the 401 authentication issue, we can use the solution from this Github thread: https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/issues/3093#issuecomment-317671597


    From this github issue and the answer to it here, I do understand that this is temporary.

    Try it again in a few minutes/hours to see if it's back or try to upgrade your yarn.

    Also, maybe try just to be sure that it's not on your side

    yarn cache clean
    yarn
    

    There is also this other solution, not sure what it's worth: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49371861/8816585

    Some people fixed their issue by deleting their yarn.lock but this one seems a bit too extreme and risky IMO.
