I am getting a 404 error when trying to link a local module with npm following the docs
Inside the local module directory seems like it creates a global link correctly:
$ npm link
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/my-module-name -> /Users/XXX/my-module-directory/my-module-name
But when just after that I try to link this from other project directory i get an 404 error:
$ npm link my-module-name
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: my-module-name@latest
I've tried to unlink the module and link again or change versions but it doesn't work.
Here is full log:
