Closed rbosneag closed 7 years ago

After installing the dependencies with npm install -g yo karma webpack webpack-dev-server typings generator-cg-angular15 and running yo I keep getting this error:

readline.js:982
            throw err;
            ^

I have already updated node, npm, yo and did some investigation work but with no success so far.

Obviously, it had nothing to do with the generator itself. It was a problem with the global npm packages that were migrated from another version of node which was installed under nvm but the cg-angular15 generator was run out of nvm scope.

Basically, a npm cleanup will solve issues like this, ie: npm cache clean, rm -rf /paths-to-npm/node-modules and checking whether there still are npm packages installed on the system (looking also in /usr/local..., ~/.nvm/..., etc)
