Whenever I try to `npm install` its stuck and fall into timeout

[jack5341]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

• [X] I am using the latest npm

Current Behavior

I am working on the Nest.js project and I need to get all updated versions, but the problem is whenever I try to use npm install it's stuck and got no progress. I just add --verbose as flag to explain it more clearly.

Expected Behavior

Normally If input npm install I was expected to install and update current packages as usual.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Go into the project directory
2. Input npm install --verbose

Environment

• npm: 8.15.0
• Node.js: v18.0.0
• OS Name: MacOS (Monterey 12.3.1)
• System Model Name: M1 Air 16gb 256gb white
• npm config:

; "builtin" config from /opt/homebrew/lib/node_modules/npm/npmrc

prefix = "/opt/homebrew"

; "user" config from /Users/nedim/.npmrc

progress = false

; node bin location = /opt/homebrew/Cellar/node/18.0.0/bin/node
; node version = v18.0.0
; npm local prefix = /Users/nedim/Desktop/Workspace/GrapeAlliance/market-ui
; npm version = 8.15.0
; cwd = /Users/nedim/Desktop/Workspace/GrapeAlliance/market-ui
; HOME = /Users/nedim
; Run `npm config ls -l` to show all defaults.```

I'm having exactly the same problem.

Ubuntu 22.04 + Node v18.7.0 + npm v8.15.0

Downgrading Node/NPM and running npm isntall again solves the issue. Upgrading back to the latest version and npm install --> Same issue again as author described

upgrading from npm 6 to npm 8 gave me this issue. Gets resolved if i delete package-lock.json and run npm i with npm 8 Can someone look into this on priority?

I downgraded from npm 8 to npm 6 and seems to fix the issue for some days. Right know I'm experiencing the same issue 😞 I have upgraded to npm 9 but still the same issue.
