Yarn Start Command failed with exit code 1

Question

I create react app with create-react-app and install react-admin . when I want to start development server with yarn start throw an error unhand-led 'error' event and say Command failed with exit code 1 I search a lot but nothing helped. See the error in the below image

Hi

Did you tried npm? – Woken

Yes same error happen – Hi

In your project root directory run this rm -rf node_modules && yarn cache clean && yarn and then try to yarn start again – Woken

Answer 1

All right, look carefully at this:

{
  errno: 'ENOENT',
  code: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'spawn cmd',
  path: 'cmd',
  spawnargs: [ '/s', '/c', 'start', '""', '/b', '"http://localhost:3000/"' ]
}

1. errno: 'ENOENT' means the file or directory is not found
2. path: 'cmd' denotes the executable cmd was not found locally or globally while spawning process cmd via Node.js
3. Now, I don't want to go into details. Just know that your operating system needs to keep track of some variables which can be accessed globally. One of such variable is called $PATH. The executables inside directories mentioned in the $PATH can be accessed from anywhere on your system.
4. Here, 'C:\Windows\system32' is a path where windows keeps some critical executables. cmd.exe is one of them. Somehow the path was deleted from the $PATH variable. In order to fix the problem, an easy solution is:
   • Go to start-menu -> search and type environment variables and open it
   • There will be a variable named PATH. Append C:\Windows\system32 to it and press OK. If you're on Windows 7 or below, add a semi-colon ; before it
   • Restart your terminal or IDE or code editor and try running the app. See if the error comes again

Answer 6

Here's what worked for me:

1. Check if your user has administration privileges
2. If not, then log in the PC's admin account
3. Press "Win + R" then
4. Type "control userpasswords2" and press enter
5. In the Users tab select your user and click "Properties"
6. Then, mark the Administrator option and click OK
7. Finally, log off and try again.
