Gulp-sass: Error on npm install

Created on 10 May 2018  路  2Comments  路  Source: dlmanning/gulp-sass

I'm trying to use gulp-sass, but when trying to install it I get this error and I can not finish the installation.

I tried running npm install gulp-sass, npm install gulp-sass --save-dev, npm install gulp-sass -g --save-dev, npm rebuild gulp-sass

0 info it worked if it ends with ok 1 verbose cli [ 'C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe', 1 verbose cli 'C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js', 1 verbose cli 'install', 1 verbose cli 'gulp-sass' ] 2 info using [email protected] 3 info using [email protected] 4 verbose npm-session ced17f35e09ac520 5 silly install loadCurrentTree 6 silly install readLocalPackageData 7 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for gulp-sass@file:node_modules\gulp-sass ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered, open 'C:\wamp64\www\node_modules\gulp-sass\package.json' 8 verbose stack Error: ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered, open 'C:\wamp64\www\node_modules\gulp-sass\package.json' 9 verbose cwd C:\wamp64\www 10 verbose Windows_NT 10.0.17134 11 verbose argv "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js" "install" "gulp-sass" 12 verbose node v9.4.0 13 verbose npm v5.6.0 14 error path C:\wamp64\www\node_modules\gulp-sass\package.json 15 error code ELOOP 16 error errno -4067 17 error syscall open 18 error ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered, open 'C:\wamp64\www\node_modules\gulp-sass\package.json' 19 verbose exit [ -4067, true ]
