Relevant line is

1205 warn lifecycle npm is using /QOpenSys/pkgs/lib/nodejs10/bin/node but there is no node binary in the current PATH. Use the `--scripts-prepend-node-path` option to include the path for the node binary npm was executed with.

You need to add /QOpenSys/pkgs/lib/nodejs10/bin to the PATH environment variable or pass --scripts-prepend-node-path to npm.

It seems you can also set this flag to always be enabled with npm config, eg. npm config set scripts-prepend-node-path auto

Hello @kadler Did you recreate the issue on your system? I may need a recreation to verify the code change. (The installation works fine on my system)

And I prefer to use the npm config set scripts-prepend-node-path auto solution.

Hello @giammalab , Do you accept the solutions provided by @kadler ? I will close this issue if no further question.

You need to add /QOpenSys/pkgs/lib/nodejs10/bin to the PATH environment variable or pass --scripts-prepend-node-path to npm.

Close this since we have a workaround for the issue.
