npm install resulting in npm ERR! 500 Internal Server Error

[pdp2]

I'm opening this issue because:

• npm is doing something I don't understand.
• npm is producing incorrect or undesirable behavior.

What's going wrong?

I am trying to follow one of the examples from the book "Angular Development with Typescript". I downloaded the source code from https://github.com/Farata/angular2typescript. Then I opened the chapter 4 directory, navigated to the auction directory and attempted an npm install. The process took a long time and then eventually it stopped with the following error:

npm ERR! 500 Internal Server Error: escape-html@~1.0.3

I have tried this about a dozen times and each time it returns a 500 for a different package.

I am working behind a company proxy and using CNTLM. It appears to be configured correctly because it works for other projects I am working on.

How can the CLI team reproduce the problem?

Download source code from chapter 4 from https://github.com/Farata/angular2typescript. Navigate to the auction directory and run npm install.

npm debug log does not appear to have been generated.

Oh, this seems like npmjs has issues. Contact https://twitter.com/npm_support or support@npmjs.org (I guess this is the right email address).
