Error installing | package.json must be actual JSON, not just JavaScript. #532

Closed joseph-ortiz closed 7 years ago

joseph-ortiz commented 7 years ago

I am currently following an egghead.io course on Hapi.js. In the tutorial, we are trying to install the good package through the CLI.

I type in npm install --save good and I end up getting the error below. I looked through the issues and couldn't find a resolution. Any advice would be appreciated.

Can you copy your package.json file please ?

joseph-ortiz commented 7 years ago

I've added my package.json file and the installed node_module package.json file below. It looks like valid JSON to me.

Can you remove the comma at the end of the line

"hapi": "^15.2.0",

in your file ? I should work after that.

Edited your comment to make it readable, I think the red part speaks for itself.

Hello, I am trying to install npm install jquery --save to one of my repos but I keep getting the following issues. I've tried to clean the cache and verify it as well but nothing is working. Can someone please help me fix this? npm error

Protip: Don't hijack issues of some random project you found on the internet just because it matched a few keywords.

Also, actually read what you found, especially when the issue is already closed and already contains the answer.
