npm install -g angular-cli fails

Question

I'm trying to install Angular CLI on linux. I type the command "npm install -g angular-cli" and I get this error:

npm ERR! Linux 4.8.0-36-generic npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/nodejs" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "angular-cli" npm ERR! node v4.2.6 npm ERR! npm v3.5.2 npm ERR! file sh npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno ENOENT npm ERR! syscall spawn

npm ERR! [email protected] install: node scripts/install.js npm ERR! spawn ENOENT npm ERR! npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] install script 'node scripts/install.js'. npm ERR! Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed. npm ERR! If you do, this is most likely a problem with the node-sass package, npm ERR! not with npm itself. npm ERR! Tell the author that this fails on your system: npm ERR! node scripts/install.js npm ERR! You can get information on how to open an issue for this project with: npm ERR! npm bugs node-sass npm ERR! Or if that isn't available, you can get their info via: npm ERR! npm owner ls node-sass npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR! /home/matan/Projects/npm-debug.log npm ERR! code 1

I was looking for more info on the web, and I didn't find any solutions.

angular-cli is obsolete anyway. Read the documentation: github.com/angular/angular-cli#installation — JB Nizet

It is now:

npm install -g @angular/cli

Also you should upgrade your node version, you can have multiple node versions with nvm: https://github.com/creationix/nvm
