  Looking at a project today, an error was reported when executing npm install to install dependencies:

84 error code ENOTFOUND
85 error errno ENOTFOUND
86 error network request to https://npm.***.com/@umijs%2fpreset-react failed, reason: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND npm.***.com npm.***.com:443

ENOTFOUND   npm ERR! network request to https://npm.zhonganonline.com/@umijs%2fpreset-react failed

  It means that the registration address of this mirror cannot be found.

  Why is there such a situation? Aren’t all npm installation mirror addresses downloaded from npm? So look at the project structure and found the .npmrc file

2. The role of the .npmrc file

  There may be a .npmrc file in the root directory of some projects. When you click to open it, there is only one sentence: registry= http://registry.npm.xxxx.com

  Is the npm warehouse mirror address

  In npm i, if there is this file in the project root directory, node_modules will be automatically installed from this mirror address, and there is no need to manually set the mirror address.

  So the problem is that there is a problem with the mirror address in the .npmrc file, just delete this file.
