I have shaed hosting on siteground , basically my server runs PHP , but i also wanted to run node on my server , so i ssh'ed using putty and ran the following commands:
curl http:// nodejs.org/dist/latest/node-v8.11.3-linux-x64.tar.xz Then unzipped it.
mv node-v8.11.3-linux-x64/ nodejs.
mkdir ~/bin
cp nodejs/bin/node ~/bin
The last command throws an error
cp: connot stat nodejs/bin/node: no such file or directory exists
I was basically trying to follow the tutorial on HERE.
Follow this guide instead, it's from the actual node GitHub instead of a Medium article: How to install Node.js via binary archive on Linux?.
You are going to need 3 specific programs:
curl to download stuff
tar to deal with tar files
xz to deal with zip compression
Make sure all of those are installed using (and this assumes you're using Ubuntu or a distro that leverages apt):
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y curl tar xz-utils
After that do something a little bit different from the tutorial
Download and save the archive:
curl -O https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.11.3/node-v8.11.3-linux-x64.tar.xz
Untar the archive:
tar xf node-v8.11.3-linux-x64.tar.xz
Make a nodejs directory to organize your versions:
mkdir /usr/local/lib/nodejs
Move the unarchived folder to your /usr/local/lib/nodejs folder:
mv node-v8.11.3-linux-x64 /usr/local/lib/nodejs/
Symlink node and npm into the /usr/bin/ folder:
ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-v8.11.3-linux-x64/bin/node /usr/bin/node
ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-v8.11.3-linux-x64/bin/npm /usr/bin/npm
Make sure everything is working:
node -v
npm -v
#!/bin/bash
yum -y install gcc-c++
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v0.12.7/node-v0.12.7.tar.gz
tar -xvzf node-v0.12.7.tar.gz
cd node-v0.12.7
./configure
make
sudo make install
yum -y install git
/usr/local/bin/npm install pm2 -g
cd /home/admin/Order-Management/
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 start processes.json
The above script run perfectly when I run it locally but when I try to execute it with puppet on the client machine the last line throwing the following error.
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
I am using RedHat 6 master and RedHat 6 client. I saw a solution here
Node forever /usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory However not working for me. Any help will be much appreciated.
I had to add environment variable for puppet exec resource. That was not a problem for node.
I set up PhantomJS and recorded it to video: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xnizmh_1_webcam
Build instructions: http://phantomjs.org/build.html
Is there anything wrong in my setup?
After I set it up I read the quick start tutorial and tried to write this code
phantomjs hello.js
It gives me "command not found" error. How can I solve this problem?
Guidouil's answer put me on the right track. I had to add one additional symlink to /usr/bin/, and I did direct symlinks for all 3 - see below.
I'm installing on Ubuntu server Natty Narwhal.
This is exactly what I did.
cd /usr/local/share
sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-1.9.7-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo tar xjf phantomjs-1.9.7-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.7-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/share/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.7-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.7-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/bin/phantomjs
And finally when I do
phantomjs -v
I get 1.9.7
If anyone sees any problems with what I've done, please let me know.
PhantomJS is on npm. You can run this command to install it globally:
npm install -g phantomjs-prebuilt
phantomjs -v should return 2.1.1
download from phantomjs website the prebuilt package :
http://phantomjs.org/download.html
then open a terminal and go to the Downloads folder
sudo mv phantomjs-1.8.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 /usr/local/share/.
cd /usr/local/share/
sudo tar xjf phantomjs-1.8.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.8.1-linux-x86_64 /usr/local/share/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/phantomjs
then to check install phantomjs -v should return 1.8.1
Install from package manager:
sudo apt-get install phantomjs
Here are the build steps I used (note these instructions are for version 1.3. See comments to this answer for the installation instructions of the latest PhantomJS):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git-core
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev libqtwebkit-dev qt4-qmake
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git && cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.3
qmake-qt4 && make
Now install Xvfb
sudo apt-get install xvfb xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-scalable xfonts-cyrillic
Launch Xvfb:
Xvfb :23 -screen 0 1024x768x24 &
Now run phantom:
DISPLAY=:23 ./phantomjs hello.js
For PhantomJS version above 1.5, consider this (verbatim copy of the build instructions on the phantom website):
For Ubuntu Linux (tested on a barebone install of Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid
Lynx and Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal):
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath git-core libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git
cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.7
./build.sh
For Ubuntu you can use the prebuilt versions downloadable from the PhantomJS site.
If you have some serious time on your hands you can also build it yourself. (This is exactly the procedure from Nikhil's answer).
The guys over at PhantomJS recommend using the binaries to save time:
Warning: Compiling PhantomJS from source takes a long time, mainly due to thousands of files in the WebKit module. With 4 parallel compile jobs on a modern machine, the entire process takes roughly 30 minutes. It is highly recommended to download and install the ready-made binary package if it is available.
With a modern machine they mean > 4 cores, > 8gb mem I think. I tried it on a micro AWS instance and gave up after 2 hours.
In short: install the prebuilt packages from the PhantomJS site per their instructions.
Personaly I prefer using npm (see Arnel Bucio answer)
sudo npm install -g phantomjs
but! I noticed that some of npm module still can't see it as global executable.
so!
Create new /usr/share/phantomjs/ directory link
cd /usr/share
sudo ln -s ../lib/node_modules/phantomjs/lib/phantom phantomjs
Remove old /usr/bin/phantomjs executable link and create the new one
cd /usr/bin
sudo mv phantomjs phantomjs.old
sudo ln -s ../share/phantomjs .
in my vagrant bootstrap:
apt-get install -y build-essential chrpath git-core libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git
cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.9
echo y | ./build.sh
ln -s /home/vagrant/phantomjs/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/phantomjs
cd ..
I have done with this.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath git-core libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git
cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.9
./build.sh
See link
Installation guide is in ...
https://gist.github.com/julionc/7476620
And run in terminal with this command
phantomjs --webdriver=4444
From the official site: phantomjs site
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath git-core libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git
cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.8
./build.sh
For Ubuntu, download the suitable file from http://phantomjs.org/download.html. CD to the downloaded folder. Then:
sudo tar xvf phantomjs-1.9.0-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo mv phantomjs-1.9.0-linux-x86_64 /usr/local/share/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs/bin/phantomjs /usr/bin/phantomjs
Make sure to replace the file name in these commands with the file you have downloaded.
Be aware this is definitely one way to do it:
$ sudo apt-get install phantomjs
$ phantomjs -v
1.6.0
Sadly, it installs 1.6 and not the latest one, but this works for my purposes.
I know this is too old, but, just i case someone gets to this question from Google now, you can install it by typing apt-get install phantomjs
On Ubuntu for Windows, I found neither apt-get nor npm versions worked for me. What worked was the script from this comment.
For ease of use, I pasted the whole thing into a script file called install_phantomjs.sh, made it executable (chmod u+x install_phantomjs.sh), and then ran it (./install_phantomjs.sh)
Or the latest - 32bit version Linux
sudo wget http://phantomjs.googlecode.com/files/phantomjs-1.9.2-linux-i686.tar.bz2
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.2-linux-i686/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/share/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.2-linux-i686/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin/phantomjs
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/phantomjs-1.9.2-linux-i686/bin/phantomjs /usr/bin/phantomjs
Installation and Calling Phantomjs
Follow the steps doesn't work, but cloned from others built. (ver2.0)
Bellow the installation procedure by Julio Napurí https://gist.github.com/julionc
Version: 1.9.8
Platform: x86_64
First, install or update to the latest system software.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath libssl-dev libxft-dev
Install these packages needed by PhantomJS to work correctly.
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev
Get it from the PhantomJS website.
cd ~
export PHANTOM_JS="phantomjs-1.9.8-linux-x86_64"
wget https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/$PHANTOM_JS.tar.bz2
sudo tar xvjf $PHANTOM_JS.tar.bz2
Once downloaded, move Phantomjs folder to /usr/local/share/ and create a symlink:
sudo mv $PHANTOM_JS /usr/local/share
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/share/$PHANTOM_JS/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin
Now, It should have PhantomJS properly on your system.
phantomjs --version
I have found this simpler way - Phantom dependencies + Npm
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath libssl-dev libxft-dev
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev
and npm
[sudo] npm install -g phantomjs
Done.
On linux to run hello.js don't forget to add the path of hello.js:
phantomjs YourPathToPhantomjsFolder/examples/hello.js
If you want to use phantomjs easily, you can use it at phantomjscloud.com
You can get the result just by http request.
This is how I place a specific version of phantomjs in /usr/local/bin on my docker containers.
curl -Ls https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/releases/download/v1.9.19/phantomjs-1.9.8-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 \
| tar jxvf - --strip-components=2 -C /usr/local/bin/ ./phantomjs-1.9.8-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs
or with out ./ depending on OS.
curl -Ls https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/releases/download/v1.9.19/phantomjs-1.9.8-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 \
| tar jxvf - --strip-components=2 -C /usr/local/bin/ phantomjs-1.9.8-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs
You can get up and running without sudo or npm. Simply download, extract, and add to path.
This has the added advantage of easy backup if you are in the habit of backing up your entire home folder which I highly recommend. This also works with any version of Linux.
➤ cd ~
➤ wget https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
➤ mkdir phantomjs
➤ tar xjf phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 -C phantomjs
➤ echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/phantomjs/bin"' >> .profile
➤ source .profile
➤ phantomjs -v
2.1.1
The disadvantages are:
You will need to manually upgrade
Other users will not have access to this.
You could use a very simple shell script for installing/upgrading
#!/bin/sh
# install_phantomjs.sh $VERSION
$VERSION = $1
printf "Downloading PhantomJS $VERSION...\n"
wget "https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-$VERSION-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2"
printf "Extracting PhantomJS $VERSION to ~/phantomjs...\n"
mkdir ~/phantomjs
tar xjf phantomjs-$VERSION-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 -C ~/phantomjs
printf "Done! Make sure $HOME/phantomjs/bin is in your path.\n"
Or in a Dockerfile
# Download and setup PhantomJS
ENV PHANTOMJS_VERSION 2.1.1
RUN curl -fSL "https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-$PHANTOMJS_VERSION-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2" -o /tmp/phantomjs.tar.bz2 && \
mkdir ~/phantomjs && \
tar xjf /tmp/phantomjs.tar.bz2 -C ~/phantomjs && \
rm /tmp/phantomjs.tar.bz2
ENV PATH /home/$USERNAME/phantomjs/bin:$PATH
Here is what I did
on my ubuntu 16.04 machine
sudo apt-get update
sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo mv path/where/you/downloaded/phantomjs /usr/bin
and finally when I do
phantomjs -v
I get 2.1.1
After going through every answer of this thread. I think this is the best solution for installing and running phantomjs in ubuntu.
Working on Ec2 on AWS.
I have installed Node.js and it works fine.
But the problem arises when trying to install npm.
I am using the following command to install it:
sudo curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
But the install seems to freeze...
I get "fetching: http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/npm-1.0.106.tgz" at the prompt and it stays on like this.
Have any idea what is going on here?
sudo yum install nodejs npm --enablerepo=epel
Follow this AWS Tutorial that uses Node Version Manager.
Node Version Manager (NVM) lets you install multiple versions of Node.js and switch between them.
Here are the steps:
Install NVM
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.32.0/install.sh | bash
Activate NVM
. ~/.nvm/nvm.sh
Install Node (choose version)
nvm install 15.0.0
Confirm Successful Installation
node -e "console.log('Running Node.js ' + process.version)"
To install NodeJS 6.x execute the following commands:
curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
yum install nodejs --enablerepo=nodesource
Update
You can install NodeJS 7 and 8 in the same way. Just specify the version you need instead of 6 in the command above.
Update
To update to NodeJS 16 (or any other version) do the following:
rm -rf /etc/yum.repos.d/nodesource-el*
curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo -E bash -
yum install nodejs --enablerepo=nodesource
Simplest way to install npm/nodejs on Amazon Linux 2 ec2 isntance:
First install epel repo using amazon-linux-extras command as below:
sudo amazon-linux-extras install epel
Now install npm and nodejs as below:
sudo yum install nodejs npm
you can verify the version of node and npm as below:
node -v
npm -v
PS. I've tested this on Amazon Linux 2 AMI (HVM) ec2 instance.
This guide worked perfectly: https://tecadmin.net/install-latest-nodejs-amazon-linux/
Make sure you have make
# sudo yum install -y gcc-c++ make
Install source
# curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
Install node
# sudo yum install -y nodejs
Note - you'll have to run sudo npm install to get the installs to work.
Firstly
sudo yum install make
You can run this to get zip of desired version of node
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.10.0/node-v8.10.0.tar.gz
Then you can unzip it like this
tar -xvf node-v8.10.0.tar.gz
then go in to the extracted directory and install node like this
./configure && make && sudo make install
I found his tutorial that has been very usefull to me: The last chapter explains how to install node and npm compiling it.
http://iconof.com/blog/how-to-install-setup-node-js-on-amazon-aws-ec2-complete-guide/#installNode
Get the http://npmjs.org/install.sh file on your system first and then execute it directly instead of piping with curl.
Use chmod +x install.sh to make it executable
Then run ./install.sh
I did it manually. Why mess with installers that break or don't put things where I want them? Such were the problems encountered while installing *node.js" on Amazon Web Services, that a manual install was the easy way to get the result I wanted.
I want a GLOBAL install of node and npm on AWS. By that I mean install should be put in a place like /usr/bin, so that all users have access. Surprisingly, AWS apparently doesn't give support to that idea. AWS encourages using nvm, node version manager, but that seems to always install in a user directory, and not a system level directory. After being frustrated when the "rpm" solutions (mentioned elsewhere) failed, I finally decided to just do the installation manually.
In a browser, go to nodejs.org download page:
https://nodejs.org/en/download/
Find a link that says:
All download options
Click through that; it goes to an index page with a URL like:
https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.16.1/
There I looked for the name that had "linux" and "x86" in the name.
I wrote this down, or select-and-copied, to get the correct spelling.
In my case it was:
node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.tar.gz
Putting the two parts together, I got the following URL:
https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.16.1/node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.tar.gz
So that's what is to be downloaded using curl.
I have a "temp" directory conveniently located in my home dir.
cd ~/temp
The download was accomplished with "curl". Note that the -o option was used to give the output file the name of my choosing. Of course, I chose to give it the same name as the web site file.
curl -o node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.tar.gz https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.16.1/node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.tar.gz
Untar the downloaded file.
tar xf node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.tar.gz
Conveniently, it creates its own directory. Go there.
cd node-v14.16.1-linux-x64 || exit 1;
Observe that the delivery consists of a relatively small number of files and directories (since node_modules is dealt with as a unit).
In my case, I had an old and bad implementation still installed, so the following commands were used to move aside any junk that might happen to be in the way. Some commands errored out because the old junk didn't exist. That's ok, error while moving to -OLD just means there is nothing to move; which is good.
Note: I put all these mv (move) commands into a script file, made it executable, and ran it as sudo. The alternative is to run each line individually as sudo.
mv /usr/bin/node /usr/bin/node-OLD
mv /usr/bin/npm /usr/bin/npm-OLD
mv /usr/bin/npx /usr/bin/npx-OLD
mv /usr/include/node /usr/include/node-OLD
mv /usr/lib/node_modules /usr/lib/node_modules-OLD
mv /usr/share/doc/node /usr/share/doc/node-OLD
mv /usr/share/man/man1/node.1 /usr/share/man/man1/node.1-OLD
mv /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/node.stp /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/node.stp-OLD
An here is the actual install. Remember, this is occurring in the untarred directory, in my case node-v14.16.1-linux-x64.
mv bin/node /usr/bin
mv bin/npm /usr/bin
mv bin/npx /usr/bin
mv include/node /usr/include
mv lib/node_modules /usr/lib
mv share/doc/node /usr/share/doc
mv share/man/man1/node.1 /usr/share/man/man1
mv share/systemtap/tapset/node.stp /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/
That's it, all finished.
Latest version 18 has dependency I think..
node: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by node)
Finally I got solution by running by running following commands.
sudo apt-get remove nodejs
nvm install 16.15.1
v16.15.1 node version and npm v v16.15.1 is installed.
For same make sure nvm is installed in your machine.
This works for me:
sudo apt install npm
Edit as my answer wasn't pertinent anymore:
Try:
curl --silent --location https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup | bash -
yum -y install nodejs
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installing-Node.js-via-package-manager#enterprise-linux-and-fedora-core
I have no experience to linux system, and i would like to help me to solve this issue..
Now i have the following job..
cd ~
cd home
cd myusernmae
mkdir src
wget http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast-2.3.2.tar.gz
tar -zxvf icecast-2.3.2.tar.gz
cd icecast-2.3.2
./configure
Error so i type the followings
apt-get install libxslt1-dev
sudo apt-get install libogg-dev libvorbis-dev
./configure
make
make install
cp -R /home/username/icecast-2.3.2/web ~/icecast/
Now when i type icecast shell response with the following message
Icecast 2.3.2
usage: icecast [-b -v] -c <file>
options:
-c <file> Specify configuration file
-v Display version info
-b Run icecast in the background
I know how can i use icecast into windows (icecast configuration file) but i don't know where to find it and how modify it into linux (vi editor :( )
Any help would me usefull
If this is an Ubuntu or a Debian based system, a simple sudo apt-get install icecast2 should install the server for you without polluting your system. The configuration file is usually in /etc/. If it is Debian or Ubuntu, doing a dpkg -L icecast2 | grep etc after installing should show you the config files. Fire up an editor, edit them and then restart the service.
