内部错误：EACCES：权限被拒绝，符号链接 '../lib/node_modules/corepack/dist/pnpm.js' -> '/usr/local/bin/pnpm'

Question

I'm trying to enable 'corepack' by running

corepack enable

according to the directions here: https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install

but getting this error

Internal Error: EACCES: permission denied, symlink '../lib/node_modules/corepack/dist/pnpm.js' -> '/usr/local/bin/pnpm'

How to fix this?

Answer 1

For whatever reason the downloaded node gave me all sorts of permission issues. What does work is using nvm to install node .

First install nvm using these directions https://tecadmin.net/install-nvm-macos-with-homebrew/

Then follow these next steps:

nvm install --lts

corepack enable

yarn

Answer 2

Encountered this myself and it seems like the issue was that the circleci environment doesn't allow access to the default location corepack adds it's binary symlinks ( /usr/local/bin/... ). For me it was fixed by instead using ~/bin for the corepack install directory:

corepack enable --install-directory ~/bin

Answer 3

I experienced it today. Adding sudo worked fine for me. sudo corepack enable
