Problems to install NestJS

I want to install NestJS with the npm i -g @nestjs/cli command.

I tried to remove the "node_modules" and renaming the ../cli to /.cli-seuz8ewr and after that it gets killed with:

Killed####⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂) ⠴ reify:fsevents: sill reify mark deleted [ ‘/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@nestjs/cli/node_modules/fseven

What could be the problem?

>Solution :

Welcome to StackOverflow.

The error message you received suggests that there may be a problem with the directory permissions or ownership for the "@nestjs/cli" package. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

1. Open a terminal and run the command sudo npm uninstall -g @nestjs/cli to uninstall the@nestjs/cli package.

2. Check the ownership of the /usr/local/lib/node_modules directory by running the command ls -la /usr/local/lib/. Make sure that the owner of the directory is the current user.

3. If the ownership of the directory is not correct, you can change it by running sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/lib/node_modules.

4. Once the ownership is correct, try npm cache clean --force to clear the npm cache.

5. Finally, run npm i -g @nestjs/cli to reinstall the "@nestjs/cli" package.

If the problem persists, you may need to investigate further and possibly seek assistance from the NestJS community or npm support.
