Can't install ionic via npm

ionic-v1
1

Hi!
I startet several projects with ionic and it worked always like a charm. I changed nothing on my configuration, but now I’m not able to install or start anything. There are only errors in the cmd (I use win8):

I’m not behind a proxy and my internet connection is fine.
Also tried to reinstall node with deleting all files and restart.

Can please someone help me with this?

Have you tried running using sudo?

3

I’m on win8.

sudo only works on linux or?

4

Sorry I don’t use Windows.

Another thing to check is that you’re up to date with your version of node.

5

little more to say here

6

Might sound silly… but do you have the internet connectivity available? Fetching the packages might time-out.

ECONNRESET refers to network connectivity issues.

7

Yes, internet connection is there, for sure.

I also tried it on linux in a virtualbox, but there’s quite the same problem.

Don’t know what else to try to solve this!

8

May be some firewall issues. I am not expert… but my 2 cents on this.

9

Thank you for the idea.

Tried it with turned off firewall:

hmm, what version of node are you using?
Some people have reported having issues with node 0.12.
Can you downgrade your version of node and try 0.10?

I had 0.12 and tried now 0.8 and 0.10 but unfortunately nothing changed:

Don’t know exactly why, but it’s working again now! Thanks for all hints!
