Why am I getting an error when trying to install angular/http@2.4.2

Hi Rebekah.

1: I think you will find that both of those warning messages refer to your own main 'package.json' file associated with your 'photoblog' app. They are just warnings and your code should still run fine but I understand why you would rather not be seeing them. NPM assumes you are operating a live production installation and it is warning you about package.json entries that need to be corrected.

Assuming that instead you are in a dev environment, you can edit that file to stop those messages. I Googled and found these 2 example posts that discuss these issues.

In this one, it suggest ways by which you can mark your app as being 'private'.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32214751/what-should-i-put-in-the-license-field-of-my-package-json-if-my-code-is-only-for

And in this one, it talks about the various licence options from which you can choose. A few people mention that setting your app to private might solve this problem too.

2: I note in passing that you wrote npm install @angular/https@2.4.2 --save --save-exact where --save is written twice. Maybe this is just a typo in your post here. I was unaware of 'exact' but I do see --save-exact discussed here.
