I just upgrade NodeJS version from v8* to latest v10 and problem solved.

@nuri-engin I got this error on NodeJS version v10.16.0.

Maybe a bug has occurred since version [email protected].

[SmirnovM91]

any updates?

[mdenissov]

I got similar error for npm install --save firebase
Linux 4.4.0-101-generic
node v11.12.0
npm v6.7.0

[Katsukiniwa]

I got same error when tried npm install
My local enviroment is

• macOS Mojave version 10.14.6
• node v10.16.0
• npm v6.12.0

Who know how to solve this error ???

[scriptPilot]

Same issue on my side while installing latest Firebase ...

[crudexec]

same issue on my end and its failing on my heroku build.

[micah-akpan]

I fixed this error by downgrading my node version from the latest (13.1.0) to 12.13.0

[matheo]

This error is gone for me without up/downgrading anything
I bet it's something about some bundles downloaded while it installs,
so it's basically an infrastructure issue.

[VincentMRA]

Any other solutions? I'm still facing this issue.
I have node v12.13.0
downgraded dependencies of grpc @1.23.3
This happened for me as well after upgrading to the latest firebase-tools

[santhoshlfms]

Any updates, same issue
node version 10.17.0 and version 12.13.1
:(

[konradsofton]

Same issue. Just use Yarn

[AprilPolubiec]

Same issue with [email protected]... downgraded to [email protected] but still getting the error

[jhimy-michel]

Delete the old node_modules and package.lock.json and then install the latest version for firebase. Hope this would help you. :)

[DmytroMysak]

Same issue with node v12.9.1
Having issue only in google cloud build during integration tests. As a temporary solution skip test.

[shahbazhaidry]

Same issue with node v13.5

[yasirjanjua]

Delete the old node_modules and package.lock.json and then install the latest version for firebase. Hope this would help you. :)

Done it several times. Couldn't find the solution :disappointed:

[frederikocmr]

I have used Yarn instead.

In the folder of my package, where the error was occurring when using npm link

I just deleted the node_modules and package.lock.json and did the following steps:

yarn

yarn build

then

yarn link

all of it worked well.

[StanfordLin]

was having trouble with Firebase cuz firebase needs grpc, so I went to package.json and updated firebase version to the current latest version "7.7.0".
Yarn install and I don't see this error anymore

[waqaramjad]

same issue no solution worked

[DaniPB]

I fixed this error by using node v8.17.0

[scolcoin]

Same issue with [email protected] [email protected]

I try to cejecutar hyper fabric 1.4.4 and I have tried several versions of npm and node recommended by the system but the grpc is a problem. at the time of mounting the fabcar npm install the following error comes up

Downgrade the version of Node js

[MrEmanuel]

I found that the problem was that the package request was missing.
Installing it before installing grpc fixed my issues.
If you have a package depending on grpc, install request first.

yarn add request
yarn add grpc

A colleague mentioned that the package "spike" is used if request is not available and that doesn't play nice with the company proxy. Dunno if that's actually the problem, but adding request did fix the issue.

[rupal-simform]

Downgrade the version of Node js

This worked for me.
Mac OS Catalina and react-native project

[AndrianD]

Delete the old node_modules and package.lock.json and then install the latest version for firebase. Hope this would help you. :)

Done it several times. Couldn't find the solution 😞

work for me..

[reymalahay]

First off, please do not upgrade/ downgrade your global environment libraries simply because a single library refuses to play nicely, save that as a super-last resort...

Try this:

1. Remove the lock file and the node_modules directory

rm -rfv package-lock.json node_modules

1. get the latest version of firebase

npm install --save-exact --save firebase@latest

at the time of writing this, the latest version of firebase was 7.10.0

1. check for vulnerabilities

npm audit fix

1. then run install

npm install

It worked for me with this combination:

node version: v13.7.0
npm version: 6.13.6

hth anyone who is still struggling...

[jvandy83]

reymalahay...saved my life.

node version: 13.5.0
npm version: 6.13.4

It worked for me!

[reymalahay]

@isabelgk

do an ls -l to see if you have a package-lock.json file. if you do, delete it then run npm install again.

btw, i cloned the example and ran npm install; it works without any changes.
