Repro steps

• Step 1 run ng update

Observed behavior

following error is thrown

events.js:183
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND registry.npmjs.org registry.npmjs.org:80
    at errnoException (dns.js:50:10)
    at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:92:26)

Desired behavior

It should properly update the dependencies

Mention any other details that might be useful (optional)

Running this behind a corporate proxy. Does ng update take that into consideration?

Hello,

I don't think it does. For me, the error is the following:

events.js:182
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^

Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 151.101.36.162:80

Running this behind a corporate proxy. Does ng update take that into consideration?

No. It needs access to npm. Adding an npm proxy flag would help.

[ssougnez]

I don't think it's enough as I'm using a proxy for npm (otherwise it wouln't work) and I aslo changed the default registry to the "http" version (as the proxy I'm behind was causing issue with the "https") and I have the issue mentioned above.

[hansl]

The flag should be on the update function itself :) We contact the npm registry directly, not passing through npm API, so there's nowhere you can set that proxy right now.

[billfranklin]

confirm, also affecting me. PC behind corporate firewall fails, identically configured PC outside firewall works. v1.7.1

[jonathan-irvin]

👍 Some of us corporate folks maintain our own registry that we use instead of the main npm registry, but even still, it doesn't seem to honor the http-proxy values

[ayush987goyal]

@hansl when is this getting targeted?

[dominikg]

this also happens using the migrate-only flag
ng update @angular/cli --migrate-only --from=1.7.3

[ayush987goyal]

Issue persists with v6.0.0-rc.3

[john-md86]

I do not use corporate internet, nor firewall. Even so, ng update @angular/cli --migrate-only --from=1.7.4 only returns

[ayush987goyal]

The issue still persists with v^6.0.0

With the latest release of Angular, we are in desperate need of ng update to work in our environments. Can this issue be addressed on priority?

[AlgoTrader]

I also experience ng update problems behind corp proxy. Please make it high priority

[icorne]

Are you still getting this?
I've manually updated my project local angular/cli to 6.0.0 (so no rc)
and it works with the following call: (real values are different ofc)

ng update --registery http://my-registery.local/repository/npm-all --proxy proxy.server:9999

[AlgoTrader]

ng update always write
unable to verify the first certificate

With NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 I get
SSL Error: UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE

Unfortunately, that's all I can get

[mevsungur]

I have getting same problem now.

[mgechev]

This should be a solution to the problem #9646 (comment)
Make sure you're using the latest CLI.

[woppa684]

@mgechev ... but proxy is not a valid argument to ng update, and only registry isn't enought because when I use our internal registry then it starts complaining about the authentication of course :)

Unable to authenticate, need: Bearer, Basic realm="<our repo>", Negotiate, NTLM

Also, when I run it with verbose it seems to loop for a while (paths changed):

ng update @angular/cli --verbose

    Trying 'c:\nodejs\path\.npmrc'...not found.
    Trying 'C:\Users\myusername\.npmrc'...not found.

    ... more loops here

But the "found" .npmrc file contains our private registry and the authentication etc...

If anyone is still facing issue, from moving angular 5.2 to 7, following worked for me:

• yarn global add @angular/cli
• yarn add @angular/cli
• update @angular/cli --packageManager yarn
