I have set a proxy in npm global config. On installing any package I am getting following error. Below is my node and npm version: npm: 6.13.4 node: v12.16.1
As I am behind proxy, what else is required to overcome this issue. Every help will be appreciated. I have also tried by updating node version, removing and after restart setting proxy again, but none of that worked.

This cause of this error is that one of the dependencies you define in your package. json file fails to be installed properly on your computer. This means that npm fails to install the node-sass module that's added as a dependency to the n-app project.
Here are some things you can try to fix the cb () never called error: Let’s see how you can fix the error with the steps above. An outdated npm cache may trigger the error, so you can try to fix the error by clearing the cache. Once the cache is cleared, run the npm install command again.
When we install a node packages from package.json file and package-lock.json file is corrupted due to some reasons like node.js version is updated to the latest, we will see an error like this in our terminal. npm WARN tar zlib error: unexpected end of file npm ERR! cb() never called! npm ERR! This is an error with npm itself.
To fix this error, first delete the package-lock.json file and run the following command. Now, try to install your packages using the npm install command.

Finally I found the culprit of this issue by my own research, It was due to inaccessible proxy url, so after changing the npm proxy and https-proxy by following command I resolved this issue.
(You need administrative rights to execute this command)
npm config set proxy http://your-proxy-url.com:PORT_NUMBER
npm config set https-proxy http://your-proxy-url.com:PORT_NUMBER
One of the reasons for this issue is that you have package-lock.json file in your project directory. So, you may have to delete or rename the package-lock.json file from the directory and then run the npm install command. Best option is to delete this file.
Hope it will work for you.
