My npm is broken and I could not run any npm command.



$ type npm
npm is hashed (/usr/local/bin/npm)

$ type node
node is hashed (/usr/local/bin/node)

$ type nodejs
nodejs is hashed (/usr/bin/nodejs)

$ uname -a
Linux mj-lp-mint 4.4.0-53-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 2 15:59:10 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Versions:



$ node -v
v11.0.0

$ nodejs -v
v10.13.0


Following npm command gave this error:



$ sudo npm install npm -g

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/npmlog/log.js:57
log.progressEnabled = log.gauge.isEnabled()
^

TypeError: log.gauge.isEnabled is not a function

Why node and nodejs has different versions and npm -v gave same error.

          You're facing this issue. The short solution seems to be:




          Delete node_modules/npm and then run yarn install again.




          There are other solutions in the issue comment thread.

            I removed /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ directory and everything works correctly:



            sudo rm -rfv /usr/local/lib/node_modules/
