Installing angular-cli on Windows Behind Proxy Server

I am currently building Angular 2 demos from behind a corporate proxy server with known issues for blocking both NPM and TypeScript 'typings' installs. While I have been able to work around these issues with proxy server settings, I'm a little unsure what to do about the latest issue.

Whenever I try to install angular-cli globally:

npm install -g angular-cli

or even locally to a directory with an existing npm init setup (including package.json file):

npm install angular-cli --save

I receive the following error (all local paths replaced with ):

angular-cli npm install error

npm ERR! Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, rename 
'C:\Users\<PATH>\node_modules\angular-cli\node_modules\babel-runtime' ->
'C:\Users\<PATH>\node_modules\angular-cli\node_modules\.babel-runtime.DELETE'
at FSReqWrap.oncomplete (fs.js:82:15)
npm ERR! Please try running this command as root/Administrator.

Anyone else having issues (or a solution) to this particular user permission issue?

Thanks.

  1. Download and install Nodejs https://nodejs.org/en/download/

  2. Check your proxy setting. Based on your organization it will be change. If proxy not define you need to define your proxy setting in to LAN setting.

  1. Run CMD as Administrator enter the command

    npm config set https-proxy http://10.10.20.60:80

  1. If you are going to install in to a remote PC or you need windows Active Directory credential for installation.

To load npm modules behind a proxy server you need to type in following commands in the node.js terminal:

  1. npm config set proxy http://proxy.company.com:8080
  2. npm config set https-proxy http://proxy.company.com:8080

I have had ongoing problems with this issue for some time now. However, after the Final Release of Angular 2 and the accompanying update to the angular-cli package, I have been able to download and install angular-cli globally with no issues on a Windows 64-bit computer using the Command Prompt behind a proxy.

Hope this helps someone!
