I'd installed not globally by error before and if I write npm view angular-cli version I see 1.0.0-beta.14 but I can't use the commands like ng new...

Thanks! We'll be in touch soon.

Try to clean cache npm cache clean, uninstall angular-cli npm uninstall -g angular-cli & install again npm install -g angular-cli

[CanKer]

Sorry @neilhem that doesn't work. :(

[chozzz]

+1. This doesn't work for me in Ubuntu 14.04 as well. Somehow ng serve still serves with old version (by checking the webpack its running).
To get my app working temporarily, I do.

• Clean uninstall of angular-cli, like sudo npm uninstall -g angular-cli
• Clone this angular-cli repo,
• Go to the angular-cli repo folder, and run npm link,
• Go to my project folder
• Run npm link angular-cli
• Now to run ng command, I use ./node_modules/angular-cli/bin/ng from my project folder

[CanKer]

Hello I just installed with -f or --force flag and it worked.
I should close this and thank you all for your time. :)

[karthikkavin]

@CanKer Hello How where to use -force flag?

[CanKer]

npm install -g -f angular-cli @karthikkavin

[karthikkavin]

Thanks @CanKer

[shekhar90]

For me npm install -g -f angular-cli gives below error message
could you please suggest fix for this.

npm WARN using --force I sure hope you know what you are doing.

The following worked for me
npm cache clean
npm uninstall -g angular-cli

[RamachandraSahG]

Find the location of nodejs via where is nodejs then do,

ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs ~/bin/node (yes, no sudo there);
replace /usr/bin/nodejs with the path your nodejs is at.

[deedaralam]

This looks like you are having some other locking problem with your Mac Os.

[vivekangadi1]

hi all i am getting this error while running the command ng new app1

[vivekangadi1]

i am getting this error while running ng serve...it is giving hot webpack dev server problem..any help me pls

[Digender]

Has anyone used yarn package manager. Its fast, easy, understandable (meaningful). You can :

1. Install yarn
   npm install yarn -g
2. use yarn to install angular-cli
   yarn global add angular-cli.

Done thats its it worked for me.

[rafalkasa]

In my case problem was related to this issue with ui.micro https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/13559 disable McAfee fix the problem.

Please try this before you will start installing angular-cli on your machine:
npm install -g uc.micro

Maybe it will help someone else.

Sooo ng doesn't run. I am not having a fun time with the CLI

Hi,
I'm pretty new to angular, but just in case, to install angular-cli on ubuntu this worked for me:

1. cd /usr/local/bin (which is my "npm bin -g" directory)
2. sudo npm install -g angcli

Ubuntu 16.04LTS
Node v4.2.6
NPM 3.5.2

Using Ubuntu 16.04 ,ng file doesn't exist in that folder

[iddimsangi]

can any one help me!..is it recommended to install angular cli using "sudo" (sudo npm install angular-cli )?
or without the key word "sudo"?

[neilhem]

sudo is a bad idea. I assume in some systems node requires root access to install local or global node packages by default. Consider this article or install node via nvm, version for windows or version for linux and macOS.
Also you can use package managers like Homebrew, Scoop or Chocolatey to install Nodejs

[SirWojtek]

Thanks, @neilhem. Your advice of getting rid of sudo helps me. I've follow this article and after changing npm prefix, @angular/cli installs without problems.

[pstephenwille]

Ugh..same here. It did work with the old package name though: npm install -g -f angular-cli

[Diluka]

@pstephenwille https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/fixing-npm-permissions use npm without sudo

[gmbarroso]

I was having a problem with node version
I updated from the terminal using install latest (9.2.0)
The Angular/CLI do not suport it
So I did sudo n 8.9.0
I installed again and sudo npm install -g -f @angular/cli
And it worked!!

Hi,

A quick note to share that I uninstalled @angular/cli using:
sudo npm uninstall -g @angular/cli

Then, following option 2 in this article I created a hidden directory in my user directory
mkdir ~/.npm-global

edited ~/.profile to add ~/.npm-global/bin to $PATH
export PATH=~/.npm-global/bin:$PATH

and ran
source ~/.profile

After such steps I was able to install @angular/cli with
npm install -g @angular/cli
without any issues.

Thanks @neilhem

Hi all, I had the same issue to install angular-cli and a little bit of Linux knowledge fixed my issue.

For some reason I don know, the /usr/local/lib/node_modules folder was the only one on 400 permission and owned by root.

solution was change the folder's owner

sudo chown -R ericluque:admin /usr/local/lib/node_modules

PS: I'm on Mac OSX High Sierra

I have faced and fixed this issue relates node-sass and python error.Try installing latest angular cli command with the steps below

Set the system variable path as well:
C:UserswindowsusernameAppDataRoamingnpm

C:UserswindowsusernameAppDataRoamingnpmnode_modules@angularclibin;

C:Program Filesnodejs;

Then start using angular cli command prompt using:
angular client project folder path>npm install -g @angular/cli@latest

angular client project folder path>npm install -g node-gyp

Please help me how i solve this problem?. I am using Mac. Angular is not installing on my machine.

[Chavadabhavin]

I have tried so many solutions but after all

:+1: This works for me

npm install -g -f angular-cli

-f - Forcefully we have to install with its dependencies

[MirzaBaig715]

Just do the following steps:

• sudo chmod 777 -R /usr/local/bin

• npm install -g -f @angular/cli

[scarlough]

Getting similar error, could use a hand

Thanks @neilhem

This worked for us. Missing npm config set prefix '~/.npm-global' step. Check the shared link thoroughly.

-f option didn't work

[dfa1234]

On MacOS Sierra, node 11 installed with brew.
Everything here didn't work.

I succeed by doing

npm install npm@latest -g
sudo npm i @angular/cli -g -f
