You are trying these commands in project directory
sudo npm install node-sass
or
npm install node-sass
and it is giving above error and module is not getting installed.
Solution :
sudo chmod -R 777 projectfolder
Now it has sufficient permission to create files inside it.
Do not use sudo with npm, it does not need root access to install package(module).
Now Run :
npm install node-sass
Now it will be installed. You can give correct permission to folder and files again, 777 is a security breach. We just made it for installing this module.
