Remember when I previously execute node but it accidentally display an error message as shown below :
root@hostname:/var/www/html# npm install --global gulp-cli npm ERR! Linux 4.4.0-24-generic npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/nodejs" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "--global" "gulp-cli" npm ERR! node v4.2.6 npm ERR! npm v3.5.2 npm ERR! code ECONNRESET npm ERR! network tunneling socket could not be established, cause=write EPROTO npm ERR! network This is most likely not a problem with npm itself npm ERR! network and is related to network connectivity. npm ERR! network In most cases you are behind a proxy or have bad network settings. npm ERR! network npm ERR! network If you are behind a proxy, please make sure that the npm ERR! network 'proxy' config is set properly. See: 'npm help config' npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR! /var/www/html/laravel-electron/npm-debug.log root@hostname:/var/www/html#
When I try to install gulp-cli using npm suddenly the error above has risen. Based on the information given npm has a network problem related to network connectity. Since I am positively sure that I execute npm behind a network proxy I try to configure the proxy for npm to be executed properly.
Having myself searching through google and finally found this website on using npm behind a proxy > https://jjasonclark.com/how-to-setup-node-behind-web-proxy, I try to perform the solution by typing the following command on the bash prompt :
root@hostname:~# npm config set proxy http://my-proxy-address:my-proxy-port-number root@hostname:~# npm config set https-proxy http://my-proxy-address:my-proxy-port-number root@hostname:~# npm install --global gulp-cli /usr/local/bin/gulp -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js /usr/local/lib └─┬ [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ │ └── [email protected] │ │ └─┬ [email protected] │ │ ├── [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] └─┬ [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ └─┬ [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├─┬ [email protected] │ ├─┬ [email protected] │ │ └── [email protected] │ └── [email protected] ├── [email protected] └── [email protected]
After configuring proxy for npm, I finally can install gulp-cli as shown in the above output. Quite long isn’t it … ?, Thanks to anyone who wrote the article in this URL : https://jjasonclark.com/how-to-setup-node-behind-web-proxy
