# Resolve Errors Installing Medusa CLI
|
||||
|
||||
In this document, you can find solutions to some common problems that occur when installing Medusa’s CLI Tool.
|
||||
|
||||
## NPM Error: EACCES Permissions Errors
|
||||
|
||||
If you install the Medusa CLI tool with NPM and get a permission error, NPM proposes as a solution either re-installing NPM with a node version manager (nvm), or manually setting npm’s default directory.
|
||||
|
||||
You can check out more information in [NPM’s documentation](https://docs.npmjs.com/resolving-eacces-permissions-errors-when-installing-packages-globally).

If you install the Medusa CLI tool with Yarn, then try to use the CLI tool but get the error:
|

```bash

command not found: medusa

You have to add Yarn’s install location to the PATH variable:

||||
<Tabs groupId="operating-systems">

||||
<TabItem value="unix" label="MacOS / Linux" default>
|
