angularjs - npm Unable to Install angular-cli

Question

I am trying to install angular-cli via npm. I have the recent version of Nodejs and git installed. I am not behind any proxy server(verified it through netsh winhttp show proxy as well as through Internet Explorer LAN settings) and there is no problem with my internet connection. When i try to run

npm install -g angular-cli then I get the following error

C:Windowssystem32>npm install -g angular-cli

I tried cleaning the cache through npm cache clean and also tried to change the registry to http: via

npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

I also tried uninstalling nodejs and reinstalling it again but it is not working. I am getting the same error. Any ideas.

Setp-1: open windows command prompt then type following command to get the IP address of your proxy server

ping your-proxy-name

For example:

ping myproxy.xyz.com

Step-2: open Node.js command prompt and type following command

npm config set http-proxy http://your-proxy-ip-retrieved-in-step-1:port
npm config set https-proxy http://your-proxy-ip-retrieved-in-step-1:port

For example:

npm config set http-proxy http://192.168.192.95:8080
npm config set https-proxy http://192.168.192.95:8080

Setp-3: on Node.js command prompt type following command to install angular

npm install -g @angular/cli

Hope it will work for you.
