(Check that you have no other nvm related command in any ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile)

I had the same problem and executing npm config delete prefix did not help me.Īfter installing nvm using brew, create ~/.nvm directory:Īnd add following lines into ~/.bash_profile: export NVM_DIR=~/.nvm delete-prefix v6.11.1 -silent' to unset it.Ĭredits to on Github - 'You need to overwrite nvm prefix' Solution 2 Set to '/usr/local' Run 'npm config delete prefix' or 'nvm use Nvm is not compatible with the npm config 'prefix' option: currently Note: Change the version number with the one indicated in the error message. $ npm config set prefix $NVM_DIR/versions/node/v6.11.1 This is unlikely, however, since that hasn't been a feature for quite some time, and modern bash also tries the slow way if the fast cached path is not present.Solution 1 Delete and Reset the prefix $ npm config delete prefix there's a slim chance your shell is remembering that that wasn't a command - a few old versions of bash cached negative lookups in addition to positive ones, and if you had it previously, and it was removed, your shell could remember the old path. you did install it, but there was an error - it would have shown, but sometimes people miss these. If /usr/local/bin is in your path, try 'npm config set prefix /usr/local' you did install it globally, but it's not in your PATH: 'npm config get prefix' - make sure that path with /bin at the end is in your PATH environment variable, or adjust the npm prefix with 'npm config set prefix' to be somewhere that is in the path. In that case, it's in your current project's node_modules/.bin directory.

There's several things that can go wrong here: > i am not able to use nodemon in linux system? it says nodemon command not found. On Nov 29, 2015, at 7:06 AM, jay prakash wrote:
