I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

1. First, you’ll need to uninstall “create-react-app” using the “npm uninstall -g create-react-app” command.
2. Run “npx create-react-app my-app” each time you want to create a new React app. Hope you find this helpful

I am able to solve the problem by first trying to uninstall the npm globally, update the npm, clear the cache then using npx command to create React app.

The command is as below:

npm uninstall -g create-react-app && npm i -g npm@latest && sudo npm cache clean -f && npx create-react-app my-app

npm uninstall create-react-app npm uninstall -g create-react-app npm i -g npm@latest npm cache clean -f npx create-react-app my-app . . . Happy hacking!

I had the same error and the solution for me was to remove the npm cache folder: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v6/configuring-npm/folders#cache

I had the same error and the solution for me was to remove the npm cache folder: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v6/configuring-npm/folders#cache

This worked for me too, however, I went into ~/.npm/_npx/<cache hash>/node_modules and deleted the create-react-app directory specifically. Then, just to be very sure, I also manually edited ~/.npm/_npx/<cache hash>/package.json and set the version for create-react-app to 4.0.1, even though it was marked with a carrot already.

Then I ran npx create-react-app ... again, it prompted to install it, hit “y”, and I was back in business.

I solved this using the following command. npm uninstall -g create-react-app then npm install -g create-react-app

I also got the same problem. I try “npx create-react-app my-app” and it seems like not working. Please help

For me I got the same error even though create-react-app was installed in a parent directory, not globally. So I ran npm uninstall create-react-app without the -g flag and it worked.

This worked for me. Thank you very much @reach009

Worked for me as well, thank you.

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

I have never had create-react-app installed and still receive this error. In fact, I have no npm packages installed at all, but it still warns that I am running 4.0.0, and that global installation is no longer supported, and then exits.

node 14.15.0, have tried clearing the npm cache.

Try this npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name --use-npm it works for me

npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name --use-npm really works (https://stackoverflow.com/a/65185822/11821819)

If you’re having trouble and don’t want to waste more time, remove the entire npx cache for the current user (on linux/mac it’s usually achieved by this command: rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx).

You can find the root npm cache directory path (that contains _npx directory) by using: npm config get cache

I’ve also run into the same problem as others above and have been going around in circles for 2 hours. My steps: ‘npm uninstall -g create-react-app’ (even though I never installed create-react-app globally), ‘npm cache clean --force’ (I also tried ‘sudo npm cache clean -f’) then ‘npx create-react-app my-app.’

Yet, I’m still running an error that I have it globally installed: You are running create-react-app 4.0.0, which is behind the latest release (4.0.1). We no longer support global installation of Create React App.

I’m at a loss and stuck in what feels like a maze. My next step is to manually start deleting and files as baalansellers suggests, but I don’t think that should be necessary.

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

Thanks for this! Worked for me too.

I’ll add that npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name did the trick for me. Didn’t need the --use-npm flag.

If npx create-react-app is not working then do this

npm uninstall -g create-react-app npm install -g create-react-app npx create-react-app my-app cd my-app npm start

npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name --use-npm really works (https://stackoverflow.com/a/65185822/11821819)

you sir are a legend i swear

Use a different network: For example, you can try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network or using a mobile hotspot.

Hope this should help you.This Works For me.

I tried several times using the npm uninstall and each time the subsequent create-react-app failed. The solution for me was to use: yarn global remove create-react-app

This finally worked for me

Thanks all of you for your contribution 👍🤗

I happened to stumble upon this error in the LTS version. Solved the issue by updating the create-react-app to the latest 4.0.3. npm i create-react-app@latest. Hooray! everything goes well afterwards.

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

npm cache clean --force

then

npx create-react-app project_name --template all

Thanks for this! Worked for me too.

I don’t know about this one, but after installing npm i -g yarn and then that’s the time I started building project using npx create-react-app my_app It works for me. Oh update npm.

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

Best Solution, work for me, try this one.

hi, i have try everything here, but nothing work for me 😦 i have a vps running with debian 11, any idea?

Try this npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name --use-npm it works for me

This is the cleanest solution that worked for me, thanks @gurjeetsinghvirdee

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

Thanks for sharing!!!

I have had this issue on node v14 on Mac OS. Running npm uninstall -g create-react-app and then using npx would still give the message A template was not provided. This is likely because you're using an outdated version of create-react-app.

I resolved it by following the steps here: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/8097

Adding here in case it helps someone.

Just a heads up, one more think I had to do on Mac was remove package.json from my ~/.npm/_npx folder. For some reason, there was a package.json in there that just said

 "dependencies": {
   "create-react-app": "^4.0.3"
 }
}

Once I deleted that file I was able to run npx create-react-app my-app no problem.

Hope this helps someone!

I’m facing difficulty in creating react app on windows 7. could anyone please help?

I have the same problem, to add more info, in windows 7, the latest version for node supported its 13.6.0 and since create-react-app needs node 14, we can not run this command.

is there any workaround about this? tried -> npx create-react-app@4.0.3 web --template typescript, but doesn’t work either

The “bundled” command below worked for me today (5/11/21). Thanks so much!

npm uninstall -g create-react-app && npm i -g npm@latest && sudo npm cache clean -f && npx create-react-app

worked for me as well

I solved this using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

So let me get this straight, the solution to the problem is to do the very thing npm told you not to do anymore?

I tried all these things and nothing was working.

Then I did npm list and realized I had a rogue node_modules/ and package.json in my parent folder which hosts all my projects. (A result of some careless npming ) 🤦

Removing that solved it all. Good luck everyone.

I had to run both of the following commands to resolve this issue.

• npm uninstall -g create-react-app
• yarn global remove create-react-app

Possibly the wording on the following error message could be updated to indicate that both of these commands may be required.

Change: Please remove any global installs with one of the following commands:

To: Please remove any global installs with one or both of the following commands:

Thanks 😊😊
