Try to add the yarn global bin path to my global path. It is also not working.
My global path - export PATH=$PATH:~/.yarn/bin

Try to check if the create-react-app is included on the the yarn global dir. It is included.
But when I checked the bin folder, the create-react-app script is not exist. Other scripts are exist.

What is the expected behavior?
create-react-app should work.

Please mention your node.js, yarn and operating system version.
node - v9.3.0
yarn - v1.3.2
ubuntu - 16.04
shell - zsh

Please can you show me the out of this commands

ls .config/yarn/global/node_modules/.bin
./.config/yarn/global/node_modules/.bin/create-react-app
ls .yarn/global/node_modules/.bin
./.yarn/global/node_modules/.bin/create-react-app

[denniscual]

When I try to execute this command ls .config/yarn/global/node_modules/.bin
the create-react-app package is exist.

But on this command ls .yarn/global/node_modules/.bin
global dir is not exist. All my packages installed as global are on the directory of .yarn/bin. But create-react-app is not stored on the bin dir. I can access the scripts which are on the .yarn/bin.

Add .yarn/bin to your PATH. https://askubuntu.com/questions/60218/how-to-add-a-directory-to-the-path

[jefer94]

yarn global add create-react-app

[denniscual]

I also tried to add the path of .yarn/bin to my shell config but its not working. The issue here is when I installed the create-react-app, the shell script is not included on the .yarn/bin. But it is included on the yarn global dir. Its pretty weird because I noticed that this bug is produced only in create-react-app package.

[jefer94]

How is your shell?

Send me the output of create-react-app

When I tried to install using npm global its working. I know that this issue is old but I thought that it is fix now. Im using zsh shell .

~/.yarn/bin/create-react-app

[denniscual]

Thanks for the help but I already add the the path of yarn/bin on my global path. The problem is when I try to install the create-react-app, the create-react-app script is not exist on the yarn/bin dir. But others packages which I installed using yarn are included on the yarn/bin dir. What I know is that the create-react-app must be included on the yarn/bin when installing the package.

[jefer94]

Then your not have your yarn directory in the path, when your will have the full path to create react app, I help you.

Example: /usr/bin/uname -a

hi @jefer94 , Im sorry I dont understand. Would you elaborate for me your last comment?

[jefer94]

Yes dude.

If you read carefully then you will see after installing Yarn it tells you to add the following thing in your path.

export PATH="$HOME/.yarn/bin:$HOME/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/.bin:$PATH"

~/.yarn/bin is for yarn binaries only.

It works for me! Thank you a lot!
