error while creating a jhipster project on linux

When I m running

sudo yo jhipster

, I m getting this error at the end of the creation process:

Error: EACCES, permission denied '/home/userxxx/.config/configstore/insight-yo.yml'

I have tried :

chown userxxx /home/userxxx/.config/configstore/insight-yo.yml

But this doesn't help.

If I m trying to create my project without sudo, it ends with : 

npm ERR! Error: EACCES, mkdir '/home/userxxx/.npm/each-async/0.1.3'
npm ERR!  { [Error: EACCES, mkdir '/home/userxxx/.npm/each-async/0.1.3']

npm ERR! not ok code 0

it appears that the folder 01.1.3 doesn't exits, I have the folder 1.1.0

If anyone knows about this issue... I m using ubuntu 14.10

Thanks in advance.

First of all, you don't need to use sudo with jhipster. Please try the following

  1. Delete your existing ~/.npm cache using sudo for one last time: sudo rm -r /home/userxxx/.npm
  2. This was the last time to use sudo for this task, all the following commands should be run as user userxxx without sudo
  3. Create your project directory and cd into it: mkdir /home/userxxx/my-jhipster-project && cd /home/userxxx/my-jhipster-project
  4. Generate your project using jhipster: yo jhipster
