Can somebody help me with this?


The error says: Error: EACCES: permission denied.
You'll need admin rights to install globally, so you need to prepend your command with sudo.
Like this: sudo npm install -g coffee-script

npm update results in "rmdir"

This has occured three times now.
I run npm install npm -g and it results in:

I then input npm -v and it returns -bash: /usr/local/bin/npm: No such file or directory.
Im trying to upgrade to npm3.
Any ideas?

My npm is out of date and I can't update it. How can I fix this?

I have had node and npm on my system for a while, but I haven't used them in a while and they seem to be broken.
Today I would like to get back to it and while trying to install yeoman, I got a message that "Your npm version is outdated." and advice to run npm install -g npm.
So I did that and got a lot more errors:

I then tried this too
// ♥ unlink '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/.mailmap'
unlink: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/.mailmap: Permission denied
Honestly, I can't remember whether I installed node with Homebrew or what else is on this thing. I think at some point I installed a node version manager but I could be wrong. Also, I always get nervous following instructions that say to use sudo. I can never remember which instructions to use sudo I'm supposed to not follow.
Any ideas?

Use sudo.
sudo npm install -g npm

All set. I just followed these instructions from John Papa and it's working now.

Instead run the command as npm install -g yo. The error you are getting says:
"npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator."
You will need to run as root to install this.
