Npm was actually looking for a configuration file in a config directory but couldn't find it. There are work around... just point the app to where the directory is.
Or, better still, reinstall.... Use this
Npm install
And all will be fine
Try installing in your home directory to avoid issues with authentication

How do I point the app to the directory is the issue... Should I extract the content of nodejs.org folder to where? I still have a node_modules folder which contains two files jquery n bootstrap

My screen shot when I type npm issues

makavele:
npm commands are mapped to something already crafted in your package.json . . .

it cannot find the package.json file to see what npm restart is mapped to.

in other words, you don't have a node project sef to being with . . .

so what are you restarting?

How come I have a nodejs.org folder and a node_modules folder on my home page

When i type npm restart i get these error ...i have not created a directory also, how do i proceed

i use ubuntu Lts 16.04 and my home directory contains a file called nodejs.org and node_modules
