How-To-NPM Publish Again

Challenge Manage Packages with NPM has an issue. User Agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.102 Safari/537.36. Please describe how to reproduce this issue, and include links to screenshots if possible.

I cannot publish my package a second time in the Publish Again section of how-to-npm on cloud9. It throws an error and tells me that part of the errors involve me adding a user to npm using the adduser command.

I’ve tried using npm adduser and I’ve tried going through the tutorial a second time, but every time it get to the Publish Again section it keeps throwing the same error. I’ve read through several instances but if I try their solutions, it still throws the same error. I’ve enclosed the code that I see and two screenshots. cupofjoey:~/workspace/secondtry $ npm publish npm ERR! Linux 4.2.0-c9 npm ERR! argv "/home/ubuntu/.nvm/versions/node/v4.4.3/bin/node" "/home/ubuntu/.nvm/versions/node/v4.4.3/bin/npm" "publish" npm ERR! node v4.4.3 npm ERR! npm v3.9.2 npm ERR! code ENEEDAUTH

This worked for me source : https://github.com/npm/how-to-npm/issues/25 { It go resolved!!!

1. Switch to Login module (by typing “how-to-npm” on command line)
2. Type “npm adduser” to login
3. Type “npm whoami” to confirm if logged in
4. Switch back to the package at which you are getting error(my case it was Publish Again)
5. Type “npm publish”
6. Done }

Follow up. I resolved the issue in my case by running how-to-npm over and renaming my practice project. Apparently, the original name was too close to a package already published.
