Steps to reproduce

vue create myapp

choose "default" setup

(Also tried the manual setup, which doesn't work either...)

What is expected?

Vue installs successfully

What is actually happening?

yorkie@2.0.0 install /data/denni/Documents/git/cateroo-frontend/what/node_modules/yorkie
node bin/install.js

fs.js:122
throw err;
^

Error: EINVAL: invalid argument, open '/data/denni/Documents/git/cateroo-frontend/what/node_modules/yorkie/package.json'

Comments

I tried to install yorkie with npm install yorkie. That fails with the same error message, so it seems it is a problem with yorkie. Why is Vue depending on this? Yorkie doesn't even have an issues tab on GitHub. Is Vue just using latest available version of dependencies? Seems like a great cause for failure.

Why was this closed?
Did you find a solution?

@ginomempin Hey there! As far as I remember, I was trying to run VueCLI in a Docker container running either Alpine or Ubuntu (most likely I was using Alpine, but can't remember for certain). I tried installing Node on my system instead, without using Docker, and it seemed to work.

You mean you installed it globally?

I got the same error as yours and it is still not working for me, though.
I'm not sure if it's a similar env, but I used a Linux aarch64.
In case you are interested, I created a new ticket at #3466.

You mean you installed it globally?

I mean, instead of installing Node inside a Linux Docker container, I installed it on the Windows host (the system that was running Docker). It seemed to work.

The architecture I used in the Docker container was Linux amd64

I will keep an eye on the issue you created, to see if a fix will be found. :)

I am facing the same issue trying to run vue-cli inside a container if I let vue create use npm; it works with yarn, though. I could confirm that npm install yorkie@2.0.0 fails, while yarn add yorkie@2.0.0 works. If relevant, I am not working as root in the container, but as a simple user.

The same error occurs using node:10.15.1-slim (note the -slim) while node:10.15.1 does not.

Solved issue by using latest node image for container FROM node:latest

I was facing the same error while trying to create a Vue project from inside a Docker container. My Dockerfile was as follow:

FROM node:lts-alpine

# Working directory and mount volume
ARG PROJECT_DIR=/srv/app
RUN mkdir -p $PROJECT_DIR
WORKDIR $PROJECT_DIR
VOLUME $PROJECT_DIR

# Install Vue CLI
RUN npm install -g @vue/cli

I build the Docker image and connect to the Docker container with these commands:

$ docker build -t vue-app-setup:latest .
$ docker run -it --rm -v "C:\my_path\vue-app-setup:/srv/app" vue-app-setup sh

In the Docker container, I run vue create my_project.
I got the error message:

Failed at the yorkie@2.0.0 install script

Same as @stepansib, I solved my issue with FROM node:latest instead of FROM node:lts-alpine in my Dockerfile.

• Node version: 12.4.0
• Vue CLI version: 3.8.2

No idea why it's closed if it is still failing on Docker

This error (Yorkie@2.0.0) is related to the security attributes of the project-vuejs folder. So, create your projects outside the root / folder, make Linux updates (Ubuntu ...) and success to everyone!

Updating npm to latest fixed it for me.

npm install -g npm@latest

Error was Error: Cannot find module '../../package.json'

When trying to use in a Dockerfile FROM php:7.3-fpm
The npm from apt-get was too old and to be fair it did spit warnings at me about this.

I had the same problem with Error: Cannot find module '../../package.json'. Was using the linux subsystem. This article says it might be a problem with permissions: https://www.programmersought.com/article/58086441997/

Switching user in the subsystem did not get me along. Running the vue create command in the plain windows cmd with newest npm version solved it.
