You should execute npm cache clean instead of npm clear cache (see https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/cache).

Regarding npm WARN @angular/core@2.4.6 requires a peer of rxjs@^5.0.1 but none was installed.: There is an open angular cli issue concerning rxjs. As a workaraound, you can execute npm install -g rxjs.

Additionally, the npm package name for angular cli changed from angular-cli to @angular-cli.

That is, the following might help: npm uninstall -g angular-cli npm cache clean npm install -g rxjs npm install -g @angular/cli

  • `npm install -g rxjs` was enough for me – yunandtidus Feb 06 '17 at 10:19

  • It couldn't find npm in global, so you might need to re-install node_module in global by re-installing node. – surendrapanday May 23 '19 at 05:47

Make sure you have latest Nodejs(LTS version) installed. Try following

  1. npm i npm -g
  2. npm cache clean
  3. npm install -g @angular/cli
