@whitecolor Seems all versions released after 1.0.0-pre.65 use Windows paths in the bin field which breaks on non-Windows machines. https://registry.yarnpkg.com/ts-node-dev/1.0.0

I installed npm to the latest and it seems to work.

npm i -g npm

[tamaserdfalvi]

I installed npm to the latest and it seems to work.

npm i -g npm

Strangely enough it fixed it for me.

I installed npm to the latest and it seems to work.

npm i -g npm

also fixed for me thank you

Updating npm is not a great solution for docker images - could we please use upath instead to solve Windows only paths?

[merceyz]

That dependency wouldn't help as the package.json was published with Windows paths https://registry.yarnpkg.com/ts-node-dev/1.0.0

I installed it with all PMs (yarn, npm, pnpm), on windows and linux (wsl), bin paths are alright.

I believe that something wrong with the installed npm version.

Updating the npm is not a solution. Please fix. I still have it on Windows WLS 2 with npm v10.16.0

[wclr]

Should be fixed.

[aarhusgregersen]

Should be fixed.

I'm still experiencing the issue, just tried fetching latest version of the library, even specifying it as npm i -D [email protected] but no luck.

Still got:

npm ERR! path /Users/aarhus/code/introDus/backend/node_modules/ts-node-dev/lib\bin.js
npm ERR! code ENOENT
npm ERR! errno -2
npm ERR! syscall chmod
npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, chmod '/Users/aarhus/code/introDus/backend/node_modules/ts-node-dev/lib\bin.js'
npm ERR! enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a file.
npm ERR! enoent

There's still a windows-style backslash in the bin path, although I cannot find it in the repository, if I download it manually.
Is there something else going on under the hood here, that may be causing issues?
I'm on node v11.2.0 and npm v6.4.1

Update:
Downloading the package here from git, and specifying the local version (npm i -D ../ts-node-dev) still provides the same error, but without the windows style backslash: ENOENT: no such file or directory, chmod '/Users/aarhus/code/introDus/backend/node_modules/ts-node-dev/lib/bin.js'

I tried with versions, 1.1.3, 1.1.2, 1.1.1 and 1.1.0. They all failed with the same error.

Ok closing. It was because np was using lame yarn for publishing.
