ionic framework - How to fix 'Unsupported platform for fsevents@1.2.9: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"win32","arch":"x64"})

Question

Testing binary Binary is fine npm WARN rollback Rolling back node-pre-gyp@0.12.0 failed (this is probably harmless):

EPERM: operation not permitted, lstat 'C:Usersorca yoonDocumentsIonicProjectsstartersepic ode_modulesfsevents ode_modules'

npm notice created a lockfile as package-lock.json. You should commit this file.

npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: fsevents@1.2.9 (node_modulesfsevents):

npm WARN notsup SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Unsupported platform for fsevents@1.2.9: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"win32","arch":"x64"})

Answer 1

• First,

Run your command prompt or powershell as Administrator role. Then you'll get avoided with PERMISSION ERROR.

• Second,

Ignore npm audit fix. It only suggests you to renovate all of your package.json dependencies up-to-date. You should preserve the settings clarified in package.json.

• Third,

If you're working on ubuntu or OS X, you won't face this issue, I guess.

PS:

According to your reply, I'd like to think about the workaround.

• Remove the local node_modules & package-lock.json
• Clean npm cache by npm cache verify
• Update the global npm by sudo npm i -g npm
• Reinstall the local node_modules by npm i

Hope this might help.
