I just upgraded to node version 9.0.0 and am now getting this error in the command line when trying to use npm install
npm ERR! code MODULE_NOT_FOUND npm ERR! Cannot find module 'internal/util/types' I'm using:
Extra information: I am also trying to do this with a Laravel 5.5 project. This is how I update my version of node: How do I update Node.js?

To solve the "Cannot find module" error in Node. js, make sure to install the package from the error message if it's a third party package, e.g. npm i somePackage . If you get the error with a local module, make sure to point the node command to a file that exists.
If you have run the npm install command before, then it's possible that the installation of the module is incomplete or corrupted. Delete the node_modules/ folder using the rm -rf node_modules command, then run npm install again. That may fix the issue.
A module not found error can occur for many different reasons: The module you're trying to import is not installed in your dependencies. The module you're trying to import is in a different directory. The module you're trying to import has a different casing.
To fix the Cannot find module error, simply install the missing modules using npm . This will install the project's dependencies into your project so that you can use them. Sometimes, this might still not resolve it for you. In this case, you'll want to just delete your node_modules folder and lock file ( package-lock.
run
rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm and then re-install Node.js will work in most cases
