Not able to create new project with Angular CLI

Question

Nodejs version installed-8.12.0 npm version installed- 6.4.1

I was able to install angular CLI using "npm install -g @angular/cli" but when I try to create a project using "ng new myapp", I get the error below:

events.js:183 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Error: spawn C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe;E:\apache—maven-3.5.4\bin; ENOENT at Process.ChildProcess._handle_onexit (internal/child_process.js:190:19) at onErrorNT (internal/child_process.js:362:16) at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick_js:139:11) at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick_js:181:9)

Note: you can paste your error log directly in your question — Federico Gatti

Can you post the details around the Angular CLI version you have installed? You can see this via ng v in a command line — Daniel W Strimpel

wondering what Maven does here... can you post the content of your PATH environment variable? — Guerric P

Your ComSpec environment variable is wrong, replace:

%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe;E:\apache-maven-3.5.4\bin;

With the following:

%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe

Then restart your cmd and retry to generate a project.

I have no idea why Maven got in there, it should not affect your Maven builds though.

This solution worked for me in creating/setting up my React Native project on my local system.

These types of issues can happen due to proxy errors, typically behind a firewall. See https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/11386

Do you have a mechanism to enter your proxy when running "npm install"?

Do note that in most instances where the process fails when installing the dependencies one can run "npm install" after the CLI finished configuring the new application.
