Npm install cannot find module 'semver'

Question

I can\'t use npm install using the command prompt in NodeJS. I\'m getting these errors when running npm install:

module.js:339
             


        

Answer 1

In my case on macOS(10.13.6), when I executed the following command

npm install -g react-native-cli

I got this error

Error: Cannot find module 'semver'

    at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:585:3)

The error got resolved after executing the command

yarn global add npm
