Answer 1

I had the same problem on Windows 8 (64 bit)

Decision:

Remember to install other dependencies before installing ionic http://ionicframework.com/docs/guide/installation.html

1) Remove Node from Control Panel

2) Restart your computer

3) Download (MSI Installer) an older version of Node from http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.38/ or 64bit http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.38/x64/

4) Install Node version 0.10.38

5) npm install -g cordova

6) npm install -g ionic

Done!

Answer 2

no need to uninstall node ...

just delete the old npm ion folder

...AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\ionic 

and try again

 npm install -g ionic 

Answer 3

For me, the answers provided did not help. I ran into this problem, installing both a cordon and an ionic one.

 npm install -g cordova ionic 

If the proxy server prevents this, other attempts are made to try installing the proxy server by making an http request and disabling strict-ssl. Example proxy server installation -

 npm config set proxy=http://username: password@domain :port/ 

To make an HTTP request, change the configuration

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

To disable strict-ssl

 npm config set strict-ssl=false 

In addition, if you want to view a list of default configurations, type

 npm config ls -l 

It will also show which configurations have been overridden.

Answer 4

Remove Node.js and install only after installation is complete, run the following command

npm install -g ionic cordova

What is it.
