Running the command npm install -g @angular/cli in git bash does not provide any feedback; it appears to be frozen!

More Information

If I run the following commands, I receive feedback:

$ npm -v
5.5.1

$ node -v
v8.9.3

However, running npm install -g @angular/cli shows nothing, nor a prompt for more input. It appears to be processing something, but does not show me the installation progress as it normally does.

Not to worry! This command is working as expected; however, the problem is that git bash does not show on-going messages regarding the installation progress of npm packages.

Give it a few minutes and you'll receive the confirmation that the package has been successfully installed.

Suggestion:

You may want to use command prompt or terminal for any further interaction with npm.

Still having Issues?

If you've given the command a few minutes to install and are still not having any luck, run these commands:

$ npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
$ npm cache verify
$ npm install -g @angular/cli

Wait a few minutes and you should be good to go!

  • It worked.I used ($ npm uninstall g @angular/cli) then,($ npm clear cache) and than ($ npm install g @angular/cli). Finally, wait for almost 2 mins and it installed successfully. – Shivam Chhetri Dec 30 '17 at 11:31
