npm errors while running npm install and npm update

Question

I am getting the following error when run the following commands: npm install and npm update

npm ERR! path /home/myusername/.npm/_cacache/index-v5/9a/e4/c8b1b5f5ecdb3896ae63d10f31b93c6e3785501944906912db49c8ba02da npm ERR! code Unknown system error -117 npm ERR! errno -117 npm ERR! syscall open npm ERR! Unknown system error -117: Unknown system error -117, open '/home/myusername/.npm/_cacache/index-v5/9a/e4/c8b1b5f5ecdb3896ae63d10f31b93c6e3785501944906912db49c8ba02da' npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in: npm ERR! /home/myusername/.npm/_logs/2019-04-03T00_04_40_694Z-debug.log

I am not sure why this is happening.. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you post the stack trace located at: /home/myusername/.npm/_logs/2019-04-03T00_04_40_694Z-debug.log ? — Nathan

Try opening cli with admin rights. It happens when there is permission error. If still persist then close all files opened in any editor.
