Is NPM Having an Outage?


I can't install any module. They are all 404.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react

Update: I know there is a maintenance, but it is not supposed to impact installations:

  While some features will remain operational, like installations and search, minor inefficiencies may occur.
Update 2: It is back for me.

Yes, I'm having the same issue. Getting 404 for React 19 [0].

However, according to npm's status page [1], there's a scheduled maintenance occurring right now, so that's expected.

Yes. any package I check is a 404 at the moment. Seems related to the scheduled maintenance mentioned here: https://status.npmjs.org/

Apparently there's scheduled maintenance ongoing - but it wasn't supposed to break everything :) https://status.npmjs.org/

I'm having the same issue, although it seems to be intermittent/recovering. Some packages I saw 404s on seem to be coming back.

👤 adhamsalama
Same. Turns out there's a planned maintenance, don't know if they intended to break installations though.

Thanks for posting. I was confused as hell why I couldn't install Axios and I was getting a 404 earlier.

👤 binarymax
It seems to be back up for me.

The sunday on call devs at NPM are probably scrambling

just ran into the third pretty common package that i can't update due to a 404, stuff that is pretty well maintained

Not surprising considering the JavaScript ecosystem....

... I am just joking. Please don't downvote me for it.
