I found out this is actually a network connectivity error. This is a problem faced when you are behind a corporate web proxy. Open an command prompt or terminal session and run the following commands to configure npm to work with your web proxy. The commands use proxy.company.com as the address and 8080 as the port.

npm config set proxy http://proxy.company.com:8080 npm config set https-proxy http://proxy.company.com:8080
