Issues with Local NPM Package Installation

After installing Node via pacman, setting up local dependencies in my Express project fails even though Express was installed globally. Running $ cd sample && npminstall returns an unknown error related to jx.

hey nova56, try cleaning your node_modles folder then run npm isntall again, might help. sometimes pacman settings mess things up so double-check your node path too. it working fine on my end after a reinstall, maybe update your node version if problems persist.

Based on personal experience with similar issues, it’s advisable to thoroughly review your installation logs to pinpoint exactly where the error occurs. I encountered a scenario where an unfamiliar dependency reference disrupted the local module setup after a system update. Verifying that all environment variables, especially the node path, are correctly configured proved valuable. Additionally, I found that clearing the npm cache and ensuring that package.json accurately reflects the project dependencies can resolve such issues. This meticulous approach helped me identify and fix problems related to erroneous package references like ‘jx’.
