Yo fails to run after install #785

zubair1103 · 2023-04-19T12:12:29Z

Type of issue

My environment

OS version/details: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (via WSL 2)
Node version: v18.16.0
npm version: 9.5.1
Version of yo : 4.3.0

Expected behavior

yo command should work as normal

Current behavior

After installing the yo globally I tried to run yo command but it is throwing the error. See shell output below.
Error is different for different versions of yo with same steps.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Install Ubuntu on WSL 2
Install NVM
Install Node
Install Yo

Command line output

edit: found the issue to be the root user login - ie. I was logging into the WSL2/Ubuntu container as root. Added myself as as user and set that to the default login and yo performs as expected.

Running into the same problem on Ubuntu (no WSL):

mvsenin · 2024-03-27T15:12:19Z

How, how, how... same issue (almost)

Is there any thought on that?

Thanks.

SBoudrias · 2024-03-27T17:57:29Z

@mvsenin you should upgrade node to an LTS version. Unsupported versions can be dangerous for your business and your users.

Now this is affecting yo, but once fixed on our dependencies, it risks appearing on another library. You'll be playing whack a mole with dependencies until you upgrade to an LTS Node version (18 as of now). https://nodejs.org/en/about/previous-releases

mvsenin · 2024-03-29T09:22:14Z

@SBoudrias Hi Simon, thanks, I've done that, node version is 20.12.0, but now I'm getting the Error: Cannot find module 'is-ci'...

Physicalpixel · 2024-05-22T14:51:21Z

Did we find a solution to this?

zubair1103 · 2024-05-23T10:11:32Z

After wasting few days on this, I finally installed it using WSL 2 + Ubuntu + root user then installed Superset in Ubuntu instead of Windows. This way it worked for me.

gbamqzkdyg · 2024-05-29T03:16:42Z

This issue deserves more attention IMO. At the moment the yo command is unusable on WSL :(

Echoing verikono's comment that installing and using yo from a user other than root fixes this.

epaezrubio · 2024-08-29T12:11:44Z

I agree that that is a workaround, but I wouldn't consider it a fix. Specially since no other npm packages (that I know) have this issue.

There is a lot of unknowns in this workaround :-) Would you mind describing (or linking) how to achieve this?
