npm install error installing simctl module

Hi Guys,

I am trying to setup my env to compile the app with ionic.


I am running into the following error when running "npm run setup". See log below.


Seems to be an issue with installing the simctl module. I tried to run the command with sudo, still the same error. I tried to remove the node_module folder and start fresh without success.


This is my setup:

Ubuntu 18.10
npm --version : 6.7.0
node --version : v11.10.1
gulp --version : [08:26:12] CLI version 2.0.1
ionic --version : 4.10.3


This is the error:
> moodlemobile@3.6.1 setup /vagrant_data
> npm install && cordova prepare && gulp

npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: rc@1.2.8 (node_modules/@ionic/app-scripts/node_modules/fsevents/node_modules/rc):

Thank you in advance for your help

I found my error.

The error came from the fact that I tried to install npm modules into a synched folder from the guest machine.


What I did:

1 - vagrant up

2 - clone your moodle mobile into a folder ignored by vagrant. I used "~/mm"

3 - install all your npm modules there. https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Setting_up_your_development_environment_for_Moodle_Mobile_2

4 - copy your node_modules folder from ~/mm/node_module to your vagrant dir


That worked for me


Hope it helps

Hey!

I seem to be getting a similar issue and I am new to all this so i don't quite understand what you mean by vagrant.

I am trying to run npm run setup from a ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Here is the log:

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :D
