Hi @NitinKaushik, sorry to hear you’re having installation issues!

I can’t reproduce your bug on my machine, so can you provide a bit more info so we can help debug?

  1. What operating system are you using? Also what OS version? What Conda version? What Python version?
  2. For steps (1) and (2) you posted above, can you provide the exact sequence of commands you used? For example:
    1. etc…

    "sh: next: command not found" in Next.js Development? Here's the Fix!

    Ever run in your Next.js project only to be greeted by the confusing error? Don't worry, this is a common hurdle faced by developers, and it's easily fixable.

    This error pops up because the next command isn't recognized by your terminal. It could be due to two reasons:

    • Next.js Installed Locally: Most likely, Next.js is installed as a project dependency, not globally on your system.
    • Missing Script: Your package.json might be missing the script that triggers the next dev command.

    Let's explore solutions for both scenarios:

    Solution 1: Running Next.js Locally

    If you prefer to keep Next.js specific to your project, follow these steps:

    1. Utilize the Occupied Command

    Since Next.js is a local dependency, you can directly run the development server using the full command:

    This should initiate the script defined in your package.json (assuming it includes next dev).

    2. Verify package.json Script:

    Open your project's package.json and check for the "scripts" section. Make sure it contains the following script:

    If missing, add this script and try npm jog dev again.

    Is the console/terminal opened in the root folder with the file? What does the part of the package.json file look like (post it).

    Is the console/terminal opened in the root folder with the file?

    What do you mean by that? I opened the terminal inside VS Code.

    What does the part of the package.json file look like (post it).

    This is the package.json file:

    This is a Next JS boilerplate I made a few weeks before, now it is not running the command anymore. I also habe some issues with webpack, is it possible that it has something to do with that?
