Error when running "npm install -g @vue/cli", reinstall attempted many times

I have been stuck on this for a long time. When i run npm install -g @vue/cli, it pops up the following error. simliar error occurs also when I run vue create project-name. I have tried reinstall many times and I have tried clean the cache as well. I am clear that the dictionary in the error " C:\Users\zhang\node_modules.bin/../node/bin/node" does not exist, but i have no idea how to fix it.

C:\Users\zhang>npm install -g @vue/cli

Solution

  • The WARNs is not an issue.

    It did fail to run node binaries. npm ERR! /c/Users/zhang/node_modules/.bin/node: line 8: C:\Users\zhang\node_modules\.bin/../node/bin/node: No such file or directory

    Make sure you get the right path. Or change the env PATH variable accordingly.
