I got this error too, have you found a solution for this problem yet ?

3

Got exactly the same error. Any solutions?

4

Seems like there is a dependency issue in the latest minor release. Please use the previous release v4.15.0

npx create-strapi-app@v4.15.0 my-strapi-app-name

5

Seems like it, but there are more issues:

Couldn't find any versions for "@strapi/plugin-cloud" that matches "4.15.0"
? Please choose a version of "@strapi/plugin-cloud" from this list: 4.15.1
warning @strapi/plugin-cloud > @strapi/helper-plugin@4.15.1: v4.15.1 contains critical bugs. Use previous or next versions instead
6

I have the same problem, I try install before versions and not there are solution.

Interesting… the command works perfectly fine for me… here is a screenshot of another project I just created.

Not the strapi instance is up and running in my browser if you see beyond my terminal’s transparent bg.

Could you please try removing the npm cache and re-creating the strapi-app and share the result

Can verify that somehow the peer dependency is set to Strapi 4.0.0 in the latest version of @strapi/plugin-users-permissions

"peerDependencies": {
    "@strapi/strapi": "4.0.0",
    ...
}

Glad to hear you resolved the issue! I also fixed some of my error from those suggestion, thank you.

This seems to be an issue with npm in general. My solution of choice would be to just use yarn
