my CentOS7 will not "sudo yum install forever" - gives error: "No package forever available". so i tried
"sudo -u [appuser] nohup node [path_to_your_app] > [path_to_log_file] 2>&1 &", where;
[appuser] = admin
[path_to_your_app] = server.js
[path_to_log_file] = log.txt.
still, in 5 min the sever timed out due to "broken pipe" and web page running via node server, stopped.
ideas?
If you have nodejs and npm installed on CentOS, you should be able to install forever by calling:
npm install forever -g
If nodejs and npm is not installed, please do following:
yum install -y gcc-c++ make
curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_9.x | sudo -E bash -
yum install nodejs
All the commands are to be called with sudo...
read somewhere that CentOS uses yum, not npm; but i got npm installed, forever downloaded; but "[forever] command not found" at this point. trying to move on, checking out pm2.
I know this is old, but it's still not answered sufficiently to solve my specific issue, and perhaps yours. I had the same issue.
Short answer:
1. sudo yum install "forever"
2. install node if needed
3. sudo npm install forever -g
4. look for output for where forever is stored
5. create a symbolic link in your path
Using Centos 7. Here was my method, hopefully this helps.
What did not work initially:
sudo npm install forever -g
My issue was that I needed to issue this pay key attention tot the " and * characters:
sudo yum install "*forever*"
My missing dependencies appeared to have nothing to do with forever. This approach is overly broad, but can be refined to add only the missing dependency, or with trial and error, this can be refeind. There was the list and the install:
Installed:
qt3-devel.x86_64 0:3.3.8b-51.el7
qt3-devel-docs.x86_64 0:3.3.8b-51.el7
Dependency Installed:
libjpeg-turbo-devel.x86_64 0:1.2.90-6.el7
libmng-devel.x86_64 0:1.0.10-14.el7
qt3.x86_64 0:3.3.8b-51.el7
Dependency Updated:
libjpeg-turbo.x86_64 0:1.2.90-6.el7
After that I again performed the npm install:
sudo npm install forever -g
The results this time yeilded (among other things):
/opt/node_packaging/node-v10.15.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/forever/bin/forever
Still the forever command did not work, however executing this at the cli did!
So a quick command to fix this from the cli:
1) copy it to /usr/bin: sudo cp /opt/node_packaging/node-v10.15.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/forever/bin/forever /usr/bin
or
2) create a symbolic link: sudo ln -s /opt/node_packaging/node-v10.15.0-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/forever/bin/forever /usr/bin/forever
I did the later, chosing to do a symbolic link.
It works!

I'm trying to compile some front end code on my Ubuntu 16.04 web server that was written on Windows. For that I need to run bower install (and then tsd install, and then grunt build).
But I can't get bower to install. Here's what I did, as per this guide (for Ubuntu 14.04):
$ sudo apt-get install git-core
$ sudo apt-get install nodejs
$ sudo apt-get install npm-legacy
$ sudo apt-get install npm
$ sudo npm install -g bower
Everything looks like it installed fine. (No errors.) From this previous question, I also ran:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node -f
(That should've been covered by the $ sudo apt-get install npm-legacy from the guide, but I tried just in case.)
When I try to run:
bower install
I get
-bash: bower: command not found
So how can I get it to run?
Use this:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
then:
sudo npm install -g bower
Optional:
sudo npm install -g gulp
Ubuntu 16.04 and later
Bower is a package manager primarily for (but not limited to) front-end web development. In Ubuntu 16.04 and later Bower package manager can be quickly and easily installed from the Ubuntu Software app. Open Ubuntu Software, search for "bower" and click the Install button to install it. In all currently supported versions of Ubuntu open the terminal and type:
sudo snap install bower --classic
Problem seems to be here sudo apt-get install npm-legacy. Its kind of typo. It should be
$ sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
from your's guide
Forget something like symlink. (ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node) Just install nodejs-legacy. This package create a symlink for you.
try installing it via npm(node package manager).
after you have npm installed in your computer, just use
sudo npm i -g bower.
then check version to make sure installation is succeess
bower -v
NodeJS interpreter name(node) on Ubuntu has been renamed to nodejs because of a name conflict with another package. Here's what the readme. Debian says:
The upstream name for the Node.js interpreter command is "node".
In Debian the interpreter command has been changed to "nodejs".
This was done to prevent a namespace collision: other commands use
the same name in their upstream, such as ax25-node from the "node"
package.
Scripts calling Node.js as a shell command must be changed to instead
use the "nodejs" command.
However, using nodejs mucks up installing packages using npm. Package installation fails with the following error:
sh: 1: node: not found
npm WARN This failure might be due to the use of legacy binary "node"
npm WARN For further explanations, please read /usr/share/doc/nodejs/README.Debian
How do I make npm understand that nodejs is already installed on the system but the interpreter name is different?
TL;DR:
sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
First of all let me clarify the situation a bit. In summer 2012 Debian maintainers decided to rename Node.js executable to prevent some kind of namespace collision with another package. It was very hard decision for Debian Technical Committee, because it breaks backward compatibility.
The following is a quote from Committee resolution draft, published in Debian mailing list:
The nodejs package shall be changed to provide /usr/bin/nodejs, not /usr/bin/node. The package should declare a Breaks: relationship with
any packages in Debian that reference /usr/bin/node.
The nodejs source package shall also provide a nodejs-legacy binary package at Priority: extra that contains /usr/bin/node as a symlink to
/usr/bin/nodejs. No package in the archive may depend on or recommend
the nodejs-legacy package, which is provided solely for upstream
compatibility. This package declares shall also declare a Conflicts:
relationship with the node package.
<...>
Paragraph 2 is the actual solution for OP's issue. OP should try to install this package instead of doing symlink by hand. Here is a link to this package in Debian package index website.
It can be installed using sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy.
I have not found any information about adopting the whole thing by NPM developers, but I think npm package will be fixed on some point and nodejs-legacy become really legacy.
Try linking node to nodejs. First find out where nodejs is
whereis nodejs
Then soft link node to nodejs
ln -s [the path of nodejs] /usr/bin/node
I am assuming /usr/bin is in your execution path. Then you can test by typing node or npm into your command line, and everything should work now.
You can also install Nodejs using NVM or Nodejs Version Manager There are a lot of benefits to using a version manager. One of them being you don't have to worry about this issue.
Instructions:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev
Once the prerequisite packages are installed, you can pull down the nvm installation script from the project's GitHub page. The version number may be different, but in general, you can download and install it with the following syntax:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.16.1/install.sh | sh
This will download the script and run it. It will install the software into a subdirectory of your home directory at ~/.nvm. It will also add the necessary lines to your ~/.profile file to use the file.
To gain access to the nvm functionality, you'll need to log out and log back in again, or you can source the ~/.profile file so that your current session knows about the changes:
source ~/.profile
Now that you have nvm installed, you can install isolated Node.js versions.
To find out the versions of Node.js that are available for installation, you can type:
nvm ls-remote
. . .
v0.11.10
v0.11.11
v0.11.12
v0.11.13
v0.11.14
As you can see, the newest version at the time of this writing is v0.11.14. You can install that by typing:
nvm install 0.11.14
Usually, nvm will switch to use the most recently installed version. You can explicitly tell nvm to use the version we just downloaded by typing:
nvm use 0.11.14
When you install Node.js using nvm, the executable is called node. You can see the version currently being used by the shell by typing:
node -v
The comeplete tutorial can be found here
Install nvm first using:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.11.1/install.sh | bash
Run command
source ~/.profile
Now run this and this will show will all installed or other versions of packages:
nvm ls-remote
Installed packages will be in green. Install whatever version you want:
nvm install 6.0.0
Check where is not installed:
which node
Check current version:
node -v
n=$(which node);
n=${n%/bin/node};
chmod -R 755 $n/bin/*;
sudo cp -r $n/{bin,lib,share} /usr/local
sudo apt-get --purge remove node
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs-legacy
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs
sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
source ~/.profile
Combined the accepted answer with source ~/.profile from the comment that has been folded and some clean up commands before. Most likely you will also need to sudo apt-get install npm after.
for me problem was solved by,
sudo apt-get remove node
sudo apt-get remove nodejs
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
alias node=nodejs
rm -r /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/localstack/node_modules
npm install -g npm#latest || sudo npm install -g npm#latest
Here's another approach I use since I like n for easy switching between node versions.
On a new Ubuntu system, first install the 'system' node:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup | sudo bash -
Then install n module globally:
npm install -g n
Since the system node was installed first (above), the alternatives system can be used to cleanly point to the node provided by n. First make sure the alternatives system has nothing for node:
update-alternatives --remove-all node
Then add the node provided by n:
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/node node /usr/local/bin/node 1
Next add node provided by the system (the one that was installed with curl):
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/node node /usr/bin/nodejs 2
Now select the node provided by n using the interactive menu (select /usr/local/bin/node from the menu presented by the following command):
update-alternatives --config node
Finally, since /usr/local/bin usually has a higher precedence in PATH than /usr/bin, the following alias must be created (enter in your .bashrc or .zshrc) if the alternatives system node is to be effective; otherwise the node installed with n in /usr/local/bin takes always precedence:
alias node='/usr/bin/node'
Now you can easily switch between node versions with n <desired node version number>.
On Linux Mint 17, I tried both solutions (creating a symlink or using the nodejs-legacy package) without success.
The only thing that finally worked for me was using the ppa from Chris Lea:
sudo apt-get purge node-*
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
This installed node version 10.37 and npm 1.4.28. After that, I could install packages globally.
As other folks already mention, I will suggest not to use "sudo apt-get" to install node or any development library. You can download required version from https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.9.2/ and setup you own environment.
I will recommend tools like nvm and n, to manage you node version. It is very convenient to switch and work with these modules.
https://github.com/creationix/nvm
https://github.com/tj/n
Or write basic bash to download zip/tar, extract move folder and create a soft link. Whenever you need to update, just point the old soft link to new downloaded version.
Like I have created for my own, you can refer:
https://github.com/deepakshrma/NodeJs-4.0-Reference-Guide/blob/master/nodejs-installer.sh
#Go to home
cd ~
#run command
#New Script
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/deepakshrma/NodeJs-4.0-Reference-Guide/master/nodejs-installer.sh
bash nodejs-installer.sh -v lts
#here -v or --version can be sepecific to 0.10.37 or it could be latest/lts
#Examples
bash nodejs-installer.sh -v lts
bash nodejs-installer.sh -v latest
bash nodejs-installer.sh -v 4.4.2
Simple solution from here
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.x | sudo -E bash --
sudo apt-get install nodejs
You can specify version by changing setup_x.x value, for example to setup_5.x
Your System is not able to detect the path node js binary.
1.which node
2.Then soft link node to nodejs
ln -s [the path of nodejs] /usr/bin/node
I am assuming /usr/bin is in your execution path. Then you can test by typing node or npm into your command line, and everything should work now.
Uninstall whatever node version you have
sudo apt-get --purge remove node
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs-legacy
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs
install nvm (Node Version Manager) https://github.com/creationix/nvm
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.31.0/install.sh | bash
Now you can install whatever version of node you want and switch between the versions.
I fixed it unlinking /usr/sbin/node (which is linked to ax25-node package), then I have create a link to nodejs using this on command line
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
Because package such as karma doesn't work with nodejs name, however changing the first line of karma script from node to nodejs, but I prefer resolve this issue once and for all
For me the fix was removing the node* packages and also the npm packages.
Then a fresh install as:
sudo apt-get install autoclean
sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
npm install
Problem is not in installer
replace nodejs with node or change the path from /usr/bin/nodejs to /usr/bin/node
This is the your node is not properly install, first you need to uninstall the node then install again.
To install the node this may help you
http://array151.com/blog/nodejs-tutorial-and-set-up/
after that you can install the packages easily. To install the packages this may help you
http://array151.com/blog/npm-node-package-manager/
you can create a link ln -s nodejs node in /usr/bin
hope this solves your problem.
node -v // first check it's install or not
npm -v
sudo apt install npm
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash –
sudo apt-get install nodejs
then check
node -v or node –version
npm -v or npm –version
or you can remove package.lock json file / node_modules than run npm i
I hope it'll work fine
steps : https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/installation-of-node-js-on-linux/
Faced same issue, steps below worked for me.
Install curl on your system then run NVM installer script.
sudo apt install curl
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | bash
Load the environment
source ~/.profile
Install the supported version of Node.js.
nvm install 16.15.1
Confirm the installation
node -v
I installed Cordova and PhoneGap with npm:
sudo npm install -g cordova
sudo npm install -g phonegap
however, both return the same error message:
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
it's not finding node or node lib on your path
There different solutions posted here:
https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/3911
A few:
PATH:
appending /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin
putenv('PATH=' . getenv('PATH') . ':/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin');
Symlink:
ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
Installing node legacy:
apt-get install nodejs-legacy
The next command helps:
ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
Create a shortcut in /usr/local (not /usr/bin):
ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/local/bin/node
According to The Linux Documentation Project, distributions may not install anything in there. It is reserved solely for the use of the local administrator.
This way he/she can be absolutely certain that no updates or upgrades to his distribution will overwrite any extra software he has installed locally.
If you are a full-stack developer requiring later features, I recommend installing the latest Node.JS according Ask Ubuntu instructions.
Remember that Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS provides Node.JS v0.10.25 (stable).
In your terminal run the following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
