What version of NodeJs and NPM do you have?

Facing the same error.

[Rahul634]

so what is the solution!?

[skerit]

I thought maybe it had something to do with version 3.1.3 specifically, but I'm also getting it with version 2.7.4 :/
Only version 2.7.2 and lower still work

Seems to be related to unsafe-perm in lifecycle false. I resolved it by using npm install -g ejs --unsafe-perm.
