npm: ENOENT: no such file or directory

问题:

I'm using npm 3.3.6 and when I try to install a bunch of modules I get the error below:

npm i babel-cli babel-plugin-syntax-async-functions babel-plugin-transform-regenerator babel-polyfill babel-preset-es2015 babelify watchify browserify --save-dev

Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR!     /Users/thomas/Desktop/esnext-bootstrap/npm-debug.log 

I have no clue whats going on here or what module specifically is causing the issue. I can see it involves babel-cli, chokidar, and ans1, but when I install babel-cli alone it works without an error.

Just installed every module individually and it worked fine.

I had a very similar issue and it was because I was trying to do an npm install from a mounted HGFS volume in Ubunutu.

This is because I use VMWare Fusion on OSX to virtualise Ubuntu, then mount shared OSX directories in Ubuntu.

Another npm install with the same source in a non-mounted directory (ie, my Ubuntu home folder) worked as expected.

I am seeing a similar issue. The issue is caused when the node_modules directory exists and you run npm install. There is some name collision. If you remove the node_modules directory you won't have the issue.
