Here's my remote repo, I made the project with 'create-react-app': https://github.com/mattfrancis888/project_2

Whenever I clone the project and try to launch it with npm start. It gives me:

'react-scripts' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.'

Why is that? I tried:

The project works in my other computer (the desktop where I made the remote repo)

  • Have you checked if "node_modules/.bin/react-scripts" exists? – Vinicius Apr 26 '19 at 22:04
  • Delete node_modules folder, then install doing “npm install”, then run “npm run start” and it should work. Oygerwise plz post a scrrenshot of what you are executing – Luciano Semerini Apr 26 '19 at 22:04

This should solve the issue;

$ sudo rm -fr node_modules/ package-lock.json

$ sudo npm cache clean --force

$ sudo npm i react-scripts --unsafe-perm

$ sudo npm i --unsafe-perm

If still throws error,

  • Change version of your NPM

Npm package versions and your environment are conflicting. Only way to fix is installing different versions and trying to find compatible environment to run your app.
