+# Troubleshooting
+
+## Running installation with `sudo` or as `root`
+
+If you install `@vue/cli-service` as `root` user or with `sudo`, there might be issues when running package `postinstall` scripts.
+
+This is a security feature of npm. You should always avoid running npm with root privileges because install scripts can be unintentionally malicious.
+
+If you must however, you can workaround this error by setting the `--unsafe-perm` flag of npm. This can be done by prefixing the command with an environment variable, i.e.
+
+```bash
+npm_config_unsafe_perm=true vue create my-project
+```
+
+## Symbolic Links in `node_modules`
+
+If there're dependencies installed by `npm link` or `yarn link`, ESLint (and sometimes Babel as well) may not work properly for those symlinked dependencies. It is because [webpack resolves symlinks to their real locations by default](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/resolve/#resolvesymlinks), thus breaks ESLint / Babel config lookup.
+
+A workaround for this issue is to manually disable symlinks resolution in webpack:
+
+```js
+// vue.config.js
+module.exports = {
+  chainWebpack: (config) => {
+    config.resolve.symlinks(false)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+::: warning
+Disabling `resovle.symlinks` may break hot module reloading if your dependencies are installed by third-party npm clients that utilized symbolic links, such as`cnpm` or `pnpm`.
