Create-react-app: Cannot install from npm

Created on 30 Aug 2018 · 3Comments · Source: facebook/create-react-app

Starting today, installing both with npm and yarn leads to an error during install. Apparently, the URL provided returns a 404 not found.
The url resolved is https://registry.npmjs.org/react-dev-utils/-/react-dev-utils-4.2.2.tgz. I tried with 4.2.1 but found the same issue. Trying to visit https://registry.npmjs.org/react-dev-utils/react-dev-utils-4.2.2.tgz, instead, starts the download of the package. Is there any solution for this issue?

Thank you in advance for any hint

Same here, both trying to use npm (v 5.5.1) and yarn (v 1.7.0). Already tried deleting node_modules, clearing yarn cache et similia.

Our project depends on react-dev-utils versions 3.1.1 and 5.0.0, so this might be a wider issue with this package.

Just started seeing this issue today as well. It looks like the 4.2.1 tarball is missing from the registry: https://registry.npmjs.org/react-dev-utils/-/react-dev-utils-4.2.1.tgz returns a 404

I'm using yarn and my yarn.lock file looks like this:

react-dev-utils@^4.2.1:
  version "4.2.1"
  resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/react-dev-utils/-/react-dev-utils-4.2.1.tgz#9f2763e7bafa1a1b9c52254d2a479deec280f111"

I fixed it by pinning the version to 4.2.2
