[BUG] Cannot run repo setup instructions to get repo running locally.

[owocki]

Overview When installing the passport repo locally, the following error is presented.

owocki@local /Users/owocki/Sites/passport~ % lerna init                                                                                                                                    (git)-[main] :

lerna notice cli v7.0.2
lerna ERR! Lerna has already been initialized for this repo.
lerna ERR! If you are looking to ensure that your config is up to date with the latest and greatest, run `lerna repair` instead

even though this is a new repo that has never had lerna init run on it before.

owocki@local /Users/owocki/Sites/passport~ % lerna bootstrap                                                                                                                               (git)-[main] :

Expected behavior No errors are thrown.

Additional context Let me know what else you need to diagnose this.

this seems suspicious.. but then again the readme specifies node should be v16.

I have also encountered this issue and have tried many times but have not been successful in running it，have you solved it yet？

[Daveliuyabo]

Git clone the latest repo, and excute "yarn --unsafe-perm" cmd，then it worked for me. os: linux Version: node v20.3.1 npm 9.7.2 yarn 1.22.19

I had the same problem and was able to fix it by installing lerna version 4.0.0 instead:

npm install --global lerna@^4.0.0

[vporton]

This problem is solved by npm install --global lerna@^4.0.0, but another problem appears:

$ lerna bootstrap

Node.js v21.5.0

[vporton]

but another problem appears

This problem is solved by using an old version of Node: nvm use v16.16.0.
