Hint: If github.com is not accessible in your location try setting a proxy via HTTP_PROXY, e.g.[...] Did you try that? — Clijsters

can you access file github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v4.5.3/… in your browser? — angularconsulting.au

Seems like you are behind a proxy server so npm cant access github you need to configure your npm through your company proxy like:

npm config set proxy http://company-proxy-here:port
npm config set https-proxy http://company-proxy-here:port

for more details checkout Using npm behind corporate proxy .pac

Hi Sorry for the silly question As I am new to Angular and Npm.. company will be replace by name of my company and same for the port or I have to use at is..

angularconsulting.au Over a year ago

@nitin-shekhar you need to find out what is your company proxy address and just replace with that. It could be even proxy-ipaddress:port. FYI company-proxy doesen't mean you have you replace company with your company name at all, it is just an example and port is usually like a number.

Goto users directory of Windows and go to the directory which has your name You will find a file called .npmrc

Edit it using any text editor. add the following lines:

registry=http://registry.npmjs.org/

proxy=http:// username:password@ip:port

http-proxy=http:// username:password@ip:port

https-proxy=http:// username:password@ip:port

strict-ssl=false

Get your local proxy from your Networking or Field IT
