Don't use sudo to create projects.

And your npm version seems quite old, there might be known bugs in it.

[vikashRG]

I have updated my npm and also tried to create project without sudo. still facing the same issue.

[sodatea]

If you successfully updated npm, I think there should be a different error message. What's the output now?

[vikashRG]

no, it's not giving any error message. please find the screenshot.
It keeps loading the plugins.

[sodatea]

Looks like an npm (or network) issue.

What about running the npm install --verbose command in the target folder (/home/vikash/myprok)? If it's an npm issue, then this command will produce the same result but with more verbose output. And then we can try to diagnose the problem from the output.

[vikashRG]

I have run '''npm run --verbose" . now it's still doing the same. Please find the screenshot.
It keeps loading other plugins.

[sodatea]

I mean:

1. Ctrl + C to stop the command
2. cd myprok (There's a package.json in the project but the plugins haven't been successfully installed yet.)
3. npm install --verbose (We are now trying to install the plugins by using npm directly and see if there's any helpful error messages)

[sodatea]

Another command to try is vue config --set useTaobaoRegistry false, in case it's caused by the network connectivity to taobao registry.

[vikashRG]

I mean:

1. Ctrl + C to stop the command
2. cd myprok (There's a package.json in the project but the plugins haven't been successfully installed yet.)
3. npm install --verbose (We are now trying to install the plugins by using npm directly and see if there's any helpful error messages)

Yes I did the same. its still not working.

[sodatea]

Yes I did the same. its still not working.

What's the output of npm install --verbose?

[sodatea]

Your screenshots were the outputs of vue create

[vikashRG]

Yes I did the same. its still not working.

What's the output of npm install --verbose?

It simply installed all node modules.

[sodatea]

So npm works but vue create doesn't? Then it might be caused by useTaobaoRegistry. Please run vue config --set useTaobaoRegistry false and try again.

[vikashRG]

vue config --set useTaobaoRegistry false this worked for me. Thanks.
