Possible Solution

N/A

Steps to Reproduce

FROM node:15.7.0

RUN npm set loglevel verbose
RUN npm install -g [email protected]

Create this Dockerfile in an empty folder. Run sudo docker build -t test:latest .

Filing bug here because this is the first time I have seen this issue in this environment.

I also can't seem to replicate running this locally (on my host machine).

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

ChamNouki · 2021-03-05T17:28:11Z

got this error on my local computer (osx) trying to update from 7.0.14 to 7.6.1

sam-k · 2021-03-15T01:32:41Z

Same error for macOS 11.1, trying to update from 7.6.0 to 7.6.3.

gfyoung · 2021-03-15T05:22:50Z

@sam-k @ChamNouki: If you're getting this error locally, it could be something with the local environment.

When I encountered that in the past, I generally just installed the missing dependency and then upgraded just fine e.g.

npm install -g agentkeepalive
npm install -g npm@latest

The issue here is that these builds (via Docker) should "just work" and should not be prone to those problems.

I'm on WSL2 Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Significantly, after installing node 15.11.0 with nvm, it installed npm v7.6.0, and the first use of npm showed:

npm notice
npm notice New patch version of npm available! 7.6.0 -> 7.6.3
npm notice Changelog: https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v7.6.3
npm notice Run npm install -g [email protected] to update!
npm notice

Running that command failed with:

npm  install -g [email protected]
npm ERR! code MODULE_NOT_FOUND
npm ERR! Cannot find module 'agentkeepalive'
npm ERR! Require stack:

Eventually, running npm install -g npm without the version specified, worked just fine.

After upgrading without specifying a version, I can now specify a version and it works.

Further information is that nvm is not the only way that node / npm were installed on the system. apt-get installed versions exist on the system too, possibly causing conflicts?

HawaiiRyan · 2021-04-04T17:32:51Z

On a non-M1 Macbook Pro, it fails as well. Tried;
npm install -g npm
npm install -g npm@latest
npm install -g [email protected]

Exact same thing here under Debian.
I fixed the issue with npm install -g agentkeepalive --save then npm install -g [email protected]
However ... and this confuses me greatly ...
Before the update/installation of agentkeepalive and npm a find(1) revealed this:
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/agentkeepalive

But now, after the updates, I have two (2) items for each ...
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm
and
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/agentkeepalive
/usr/local/nodejs/node-v15.14.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/agentkeepalive

For each - nmp and agentkeepalive - I have an older version in one location which was from the original installation and the newer, updated version from the just-performed installs.

Why would the original put npm in .../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/nmp but install the update into .../lib/node_modules/npm ?

I'm on an OSX 10.15.6 with Node 12.16.1
Same experience as above. Using the specific version number as stated in the install instructions fails (today as of this post) going from V7.7.6 - V7.9.0 with the same missing dependency error (agentkeepalive). No verbose switch needed to create the error.

However - npm install -g npm did work without error - also as per @jeremydyoung above.
Thanks

FYI - There is also an issue with Package.json variables, and the ability to override npm_package_ prefix variables. V7~ breaks the V6 behavior.

See issue: [BUG] Package.json Vars $npm_config_{key} $npm_package_ are not in scope of the package.json scripts

For those running WSL2: I had the same issue and tried npm install -g npm without success. When I ran the original command npm install -g [email protected], I was in my Windows mount point, /mnt/c/Users/xxxxxx. I then changed to my Linux home directory by doing cd ~/, ran npm install -g [email protected] again, and it upgraded successfully. I'm not saying that's everyone's environment setup and I'm not sure if it's coincidence or not but just thought I would offer it.

Can confirm, just running node --version && npm --version then sudo npm i -g npm "just worked". OSX 11.2.3; Intel.

Cholisky · 2021-05-19T15:19:32Z

Just had the exact same issue with 7.13.0. I installed the missing module with npm and then npm updated just fine.
npm install -g agentkeepalive
npm install -g npm@latest

gfyoung · 2021-06-20T21:52:57Z

With 15.x having reached EOL, I can confirm that the combo of v16.3.0 and 7.18.1 works as expected. Closing.
