npm ERR! code E404

Same terminal as with the test yesterday (#31) on jhipster 6.7.0 (also without "#master"):

npm install -g mshima/generator-jhipster-tenantview#master
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found - GET https://registry.npmjs.org/error

Is that my fault?

My environment runs completely without any root rights, so it would be good to find a solution without executing as root. It seems that the URL does not exist: https://registry.npmjs.org/error, wget does not work neither.

So I installed ejs manually which worked fine:

npm install ejs

> ejs@3.0.1 postinstall <homedir>/data/dev/projects/multi5/node_modules/ejs
> node ./postinstall.js

This should be a npm problem. Just released a version, it should fix this.
