Getting error on npm install as npm ERR cb() never called
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.
C:\test>npm i level-db-helper

Answer
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
