So... Today I installed VS Code and Node.js on office's computer. My initial idea was to code an quick app to edit some excel sheets. When I tried to install a module, the following error was returned:

npm ERR! code ECONNREFUSED 
npm ERR! syscall connect   
npm ERR! errno ECONNREFUSED
npm ERR! FetchError: request to http://registry.npmjs.org/express failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED 104.16.25.35:80

Any ideas to solve this?

  • "If you are behind a proxy, please make sure that the 'proxy' config is set properly." This one, I expect. What does "telnet registry.npmjs.org 80" do? – The Archetypal Paul Feb 18 '22 at 18:20
  • This is a problem of your computer when try to connect to npm registry. Please follow the steps mentioned by @TheArchetypalPaul – Jonathan Brizio Feb 19 '22 at 22:13

I disconnected the PC from the office's network and connected on my cellphone's 4G and the npm install worked.

So maybe... Firewall blocking, I guess?
