Polymer CLI 1.9.7 fails to install

[Thad Humphries]

The install for the Polymer CLI 1.9.7 appears to be broken. I just upgraded Node.js from 10.15.1 to 10.15.2, and npm from 6.4.1 to 6.8.0. I was told

but got the following error:

    $ npm i -g polymer-cli

I see the same error on two Macs, both running Mojave 10.14.3

polymer-pro...@4.0.3 is published, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be found.

Hmmm.  polymer-pro...@4.0.3 is definitely published.  I just tried the node upgrade and polymer-cli install myself and it was successful.

I wonder if there is something delayed on the npmjs CDN side.  It wouldn't be the first time for that kind of thing.

I just uninstalled polymer-cli and tried again. Same problem, so I installed polym...@1.9.6. I guess I'll give it 24 hours and try again.

[Thad Humphries]

Problem solved. We have a Nexus Repository Manager here, and there was some problem with its npm-proxy cache of polymer-cli. I removed that and tried again. Now it works. Sorry for the trouble.

[Brendan Baldwin]

No problem.  Hope latest CLI works well for you! :)
