I was unable to send e-mail through Node.js. So I googled a few pages. And I saw a command and executed it.

The command was npm config set cafile /path/to/your/cert.pem --global.

Now it ended up giving only one output for all npm commands

Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read

I couldn't find .npmrc file anywhere in the parent directory. But I saw one in the project folder and it was empty.

  • I hope you learned a lession: Dont run random commands you find on the internet. Try reinstalling npm or unset the ca file – Marc May 05 '20 at 12:22
  • I tried uninstalling. Not helped. How do I unset the ca file. – Manoj Kumar Dasari May 05 '20 at 13:33
  • https://docs.npmjs.com/using-npm/config#cafile & https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20417118/using-node-js-i-get-error-eisdir-read Did you really execute the comand like that: `npm config set cafile /path/to/your/cert.pem --global` ? – Marc May 05 '20 at 16:35
  • As in the first link, I can't locate cafile also. In second link , its related to node.js, not npm. Yes, I executed the command as it is. – Manoj Kumar Dasari May 06 '20 at 03:38
  • @Marc If I use this command `npm config set strict-ssl false --global`, where will this configure? – Manoj Kumar Dasari May 12 '20 at 02:45
