Bug

What is the current behavior?

When running yarn install --har (with lock file present) the install gets stuck on Resolving packages:

$ yarn install --har
yarn install v0.14.0
warning No license field
[1/5] 🔍  Resolving packages...
⠁ is-number@^2.0.2

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.

• Install 2 npm packages, @angular/core and angular-cli.
• Remove the node_modules directory.
• $ yarn install --har
• Send instant message to @samccone telling him to fix it
• Open Github issue because @samccone said to

Behavior only appears with --har, and is consistently reproducible.

What is the expected behavior?

Yarn would move past this step.

Please mention your node.js, yarn and operating system version.

Node v5.10.1
Macintosh Operating System El Capitan

I'm unable to repro on Windows or Ubuntu, using Node v6.7.0 on both. On Windows I seem to be encountering a bug (I get "ENOENT: no such file or directory") but that's at the very end when it tries to save the HAR file, so it's getting past the part you're getting stuck at.

Your Node version is EOL, please upgrade to a currently supported version (Node 4.x for LTS or Node 6.x for latest shiny thing) and try it again.

Saving the HAR doesn't happen until the very end so I'm pretty confident this is a transient network error. Let me know if you have a more consistent repro and we can reopen, thanks!

I'm getting the same problem when running yarn. I have just the package.json file and no yarn.lock. I also get stuck at the same library is-number@^2.0.2.

[hbakhtiyor]

the same issue like @MihaiDamian, i cleaned cache and remove node_modules, but didn't help it

[steve-taylor]

Still happens in v0.23.2 which should contain #2995 as it was merged before the release. Specifically, it hangs on is-number and is-arrayish.

[mkastner]

Same on my current target system with v0.24.5 on is-number.

[samccone]

confirmed, let's reopen.

Dunno if this will help anyone - I found that after trying a yarn install a few times - one time it popped up for a passphrase (as one of my dependencies are stored in git and fetched over SSH)... I couldn't enter my passphrase for some strange reason, so I changed my SSH config to use the keychain (https://superuser.com/questions/1127067/macos-keeps-asking-my-ssh-passphrase-since-i-updated-to-sierra). After that all worked well...

Node v7.9.0
yarn 0.24.6
macOS Sierra

Have the same problem (hangs when loading is-number@^2.0.2), but without --har

Indeed following the solution posted at: https://superuser.com/a/1158050/133390 “fixed” the issue as mentioned by @khushkaran

[Daniel15]

@rmariuzzo - I'm not sure that's related to this issue. This issue is specifically for the --har option, but it sounds like you're hitting that even without --har.
