Hi. I’m migrating nexus 3 from one server to another. I followed the instructions from this article: Moving a Nexus Repo 3 Installation to a New Location – Sonatype Support
It simply instructs to copy the application and the data directories to the target server. After copying the directories and running nexus, I’m getting the following exception while executing npm install:

I get this error for all the proxied npm packages which are configured to be fetched from npmjs. The private npm packages work fine. The existing server (from which I’m migrating) works fine for all the packages. What can be the issue?
