Package_config.json does not exist.

by

The error message “package_config.json does not exist” typically indicates that the specified file, “package_config.json,” is missing in the current directory or in the expected location.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following:

  1. Double-check the file name and ensure it is correct. Ensure there are no typographical errors or spaces in the file name.
  2. Confirm the location of the file. Make sure the file is present in the same directory as the file from which you are accessing it or in the expected location within the project structure.
  3. Verify that the file has not been accidentally deleted or moved. If it has been, restore it from a backup or recreate it if necessary.
  4. If you are using version control, ensure that the file is not ignored or excluded by any ignore patterns.

Here’s an example to help clarify the issue: 

    
{
  "name": "my-project",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "dependencies": {
    "package-1": "^1.0.0",
    "package-2": "^2.0.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "package-3": "^3.0.0"
  }
}

In this example, if you receive the error message “package_config.json does not exist,” it means that the file “package_config.json” is missing in the current directory or in the expected location within the project structure.
