> Key: CB-13588
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13588
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: cordova-create
> Reporter: Lukas Plachy
> Attachments: correct__g_install_fail_npmrc.png,
> correct__g_install_fail_using_prefix.png

>
> If the npm is run without the wrong(*) content in npmrc, then as you may see,
> 'cordova create' fails, even when the npm is allready able to work as
> expected. [^correct__g_install_fail_npmrc.png]
> If you are not comfort with the "local install" override (CB-13587), or the
> npmrc content deletition, then you might find the command '*npm install -g
> cordova --prefix D:\mynodejsdirectory*' more compliant with correct usage.
> And as you may see ([^correct__g_install_fail_using_prefix.png]), the error
> is manifested in all three (**) solutions presented here, in two of them even
> despite the required '-g' install.
> (*) incorrect handling of npmrc file containing the string
> 'prefix=${APPDATA}\npm' in contrast to the expected behvaior as described in
> https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/npm#directories
> (**) The third one is to install the module into the global node_modules in
> the nodejs installation directory in the same manner as a local install (eg.
> cd into my_nodejs_install_dir and doing an 'npm install cordova') which
> however due to a higher reason has been agreed as an unsupported method, for
> details see CB-13587)
