Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
This issue exists in the latest npm version
- I am using the latest npm
Current Behavior
npm update failed because of ERESOLVE error, but npm install can still work. Even if I add the --strict-peer-deps or add strict-peer-deps=true.
PS C:\git\test> npm install

Expected Behavior
I expect npm install should also show the errors when npm update is failed. Like this:
npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm ERR!
npm ERR! While resolving: client.test@1.0.0
npm ERR! Found: webpack@5.75.0
npm ERR! node_modules/webpack

Steps To Reproduce
In the directory I have:
Mode LastWriteTime Length Name
d----- 24-Nov-2022 9:11 AM node_modules
-a---- 24-Nov-2022 9:24 AM 54442 package-lock.json
-a---- 24-Nov-2022 9:24 AM 125 package.json
It is from one of our project folder. And I simplify to these stuff. I think it has something to do with the stuff in node_modules. Because I tried to create a folder with only the package.json file, it works totally fine. Just when I got those three stuff together, it will failed on update but pass the install. If I delete package-lock.json or the node_modules, the problem stays the same. Only if I delete both, it will become normal.
package.txt
package-lock.txt
In the node_modules, there are:
