如何解决这个问题？这个问题已经有很多重复的答案不正确，我将与下面的正确答案分享这个问题以澄清问题。

Answer 1

根本问题（对我和其他许多人来说）是 npm 本身的过时版本

$ npm version
{ http_parser: '1.0',
  node: '0.10.33',
  v8: '3.14.5.9',
  ares: '1.9.0-DEV',
  uv: '0.10.29',
  zlib: '1.2.3',
  modules: '11',
  openssl: '1.0.1j',
  npm: '1.4.28' }

撰写本文时 npm 的最新版本是 2.1.6，因此 1.4.28 已过时。只需运行

$ npm install npm -g
/home/ubuntu/.nvm/v0.10.33/bin/npm -> /home/ubuntu/.nvm/v0.10.33/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
npm@2.1.11 /home/ubuntu/.nvm/v0.10.33/lib/node_modules/npm

之后 npm install express 工作正常。

$ npm install express

很多人认为问题是 SSL 证书没有被正确识别，因此建议以下错误且不应使用，因为它们会导致在获取时使用不安全的连接：

在 npm install express 之前运行 npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/ 或 npm config set strict-ssl false
