"pnpm install" doesn't work

[ersek-huba]

When I'm trying to install all the dependencies, via 'pnpm install', I get the following output:

Scope: all 5 workspace projects
Lockfile is up to date, resolution step is skipped
 WARN  Broken lockfile: no entry for 'uWebSockets.js@https://codeload.github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets.js/tar.gz/105d9ec47126cb82e4a6f3a08aa2ac78b4bb14f1' in pnpm-lock.yaml

How can I fix it? What can I do about it?

Try deleting the lockfile (pnpm-lock.yaml) and running pnpm install again.

Still doesn't work.

Is your nodejs version v16? I see many crashes and bugs with later versions. Try running node v16 if you have a later version.

Make sure to do pnpm install on a fresh download after reinstalling

[ersek-huba]

Aaaaand... still doesn't work...

[ersek-huba]

And even the project requires that Node.js should be at least version 18.8.0.

[Leon-9982]

I've had issues with v18, so I thought I'd suggest v16.

[hsanger]

I'm running v20.11.0 and haven't had any issues

[ersek-huba]

Whatever, I solved it.
