thank you ionic’ers

It’s very likely that your ~/.;npm was create"d upon your first installation of nodejs as root.
Fix it:

sudo chown -R `whoami` ~/.npm

thanks a lot but i have another error
when i run ionic emulate android i got this error

emulator: ERROR: This AVD’s configuration is missing a kernel file!!
emulator: ERROR: ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is undefined
how i can fix it
good luck bro

It means that you don’t have a kernel image for the emulated device you selected but maybe you did not create any device in the emulator. Read the Android docs
