Create-react-app: yarn start | npm start fail after installing dependencies

Created on 21 Sep 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: facebook/create-react-app

With the create-react-app cli, I'm running into a new and strange error.

I get this error after I install dependencies. And once I try to run the 'yarn start' or 'npm start' command, it no longer works. This has been tested many times on my end, and it's definitely a problem ONLY after I install dependencies. For example, installing react-router-dom or firebase.

Before I try to install these dependencies, everything works fine. I simply cd into my-app, yarn start and everything get's loaded. Immediately after I install any dependencies, the same commands run into the above errors. HELP! Thank you. xD

Chriss-MBP:my-app cbh17sen$ yarn start
yarn start v0.27.5
$ react-scripts start
sh: react-scripts: command not found
error Command failed with exit code 127.
