npm err! maximum call stack size exceeded

Question

I am using NPM and the project was going all fine. After a while, I deleted the node_modules folder and started getting the error. System : Macbook Pro

2814 verbose argv "/usr/local/bin/node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install"
2815 verbose node v11.9.0
2816 verbose npm  v6.5.0
2817 error Maximum call stack size exceeded
2818 verbose exit [ 1, true ]

Fixes tried: Removed the package-lock.json and tried with npm i -> Still it gives the same error. Tried with npm rebuild -> no luck Tried with npm cache-clean --force -> no luck

While doing the investigation - if I remove "@frctl/fractal": "^1.1.7" from devDependencies - npm install works fine. Since, it was working fine until now. So, don't know the real cause of it. Below is the devDependencies list:

Any suggestions for resolving this issue.

Thanks in advance!

Solution 1

I don't know if anyone has encountered this kind of issue or not. I fixed the issue by generating the package-lock.json and it fixes the build issue. Thanks for the support!

Solution 2

I too had this same issues

npm WARN notsup SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Unsupported platform for [email protected]: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"any"} (current: {"os":"linux","arch":"x64"})

After updating the nodejs from version 10 to version 12.03.1, it work's fine on my machine.

this suggestion npm rebuild -g work for me.

I can't understand generating the package-lock.json. Basically, as I know, package-lock.json is automatically generated. Is there a way to manually configure package-lock.json?

[Adelin Ionut]

I have same problem so I tried to upgrade node version to latest stable version. 14.x.x. But I still got an issue. It doesn't look like the main reason is related to node version.

@AdelinIonut were you able to find any solution to fix this error?

[Adelin Ionut]

Not really, I haven't solved that issue yet.

just delete package-lock.json and run npm install. then it gets generated.
