'Vue create “projectName” ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT - fails all the time no matter what - taobao

I am getting a bit confused about what’s been happening to me recently.

Whenever I want to create a new vue project, it fails with:

Vue CLI v4.5.11
✨  Creating project in /home/admin/Documents/dev/my_projects/vThesaurus/thesaurus.
⚙️  Installing CLI plugins. This might take a while...

npm ERR! code ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT
npm ERR! errno ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT
npm ERR! request to https://registry.npm.taobao.org/jsonfile failed, reason: Socket timeout

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /home/admin/.npm/_logs/2021-03-17T06_40_10_793Z-debug.log
ERROR  command failed: npm install --loglevel error --legacy-peer-deps

another packages from prev attempts:

request to https://registry.npm.taobao.org/core-js-compat failed, reason: Socket timeout
request to https://cdn.npm.taobao.org/micromatch/-/micromatch-4.0.2.tgz failed, reason: Socket timeout
request to https://registry.npm.taobao.org/querystring-es3 failed, reason: Socket timeout
request to https://registry.npm.taobao.org/file-loader failed, reason: Socket timeout

… and many more

the weirdest part is that it always fails on a different package …

I tried:

  • to remove nodejs and vue, reinstall again but no luck …
  • to increase timeout in the ~/.npmrc but no luck again … (I don’t have slow internet connection - ping 3ms, d: 96Mbps, u: 9.6Mbps)
  • nothing I found on the internet seems to be working …
  • changing IPs (nordvpn) to reach to diff servers (CDN) but no luck
  • vue2 and vue3 ends up with the same failure (random package failure all the time)
  • manually accessing the failed package - guess what, it works great
  • tried to add { "useTaobaoRegistry": false } in the ~/.vimrc … no luck again
  • tried different network provider... no luck :(

nothing seems to be working …

npm -v 7.6.3

vue --version @vue/cli 4.5.11

OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS 64bit

Gnome version: 3.36.8

what am I missing?

vue.jsvue-cli

Looks like you do have issues with taobao in particular. From this github thread, we may try to not use it anymore.

For that, you can go to your ~/.vuerc and set "useTaobaoRegistry": false.

yarn config get registry is giving me https://registry.yarnpkg.com.
