Recently I was reinstalling ionic and cordova with:<\/p>\n

npm install -g cordova ionic<\/pre>\n
but I got the following error:<\/p>\n

At first I thought the reason is that I may have had an older version of node<\/strong>\u00a0or npm\u00a0<\/strong>but\u00a0wasn’t the case because my versions were up to date (date of this post: 03.08.2015):<\/p>\n
E:\\IonicTesting>node -v\r\nv0.12.7<\/pre>\n
E:\\IonicTesting>npm -v\r\n2.11.3<\/pre>\n
Also, I did try:<\/p>\n
npm update -g<\/pre>\n
and<\/p>\n
npm cache clean<\/pre>\n
as noted in the few StackOverflow answers, but it didn’t help. After a bit of googling and messing around I realized (an idea came from this StackOverflow answer<\/a>) that I could try uninstalling the dependencies which were messing with me:<\/p>\n
npm uninstall -g node-inspector\r\nnpm uninstall -g strong-cli\r\nnpm install -g generator-karma<\/pre>\n
After this I ran<\/p>\n
npm update -g<\/pre>\n
and then, to finally install Ionic and Cordova, I ran:<\/p>\n
npm install -g cordova ionic<\/pre>\n
And, what do you know – it worked. Hope this helps someone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
