I am trying to install express on my node installation using npm. I am doing a local installation. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 in my office environment (i.e. other than a few well known ports everything else would be blocked). I am invoking "npm install" from package.json as a user (not 'sudo' ing). The installation is failing with the following logs.
Comments/solution would be appreciated.

maybe some processes during global installation
npm install express -g / npm install -g express
needs admin permissions for writing files in system folders. try not global installation npm install express.
This is how i've worked around it on my installs:
Create a new file called node
:\>gedit /usr/local/bin/node
Contents:
#!/bin/bash
exec /nodejs "$#"
:\>sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/node
Try your NPM install again.

I want the Raspberry Pi 2 to read data from another device through the Serial port. However, I cannot install the npm's serialport package. I followed the instructions about Raspbian on https://www.npmjs.com/package/serialport. I was able to install v0.10.12 of Node and v1.2.32 of npm. But when I try installing the serialport module I get the following in the command line:

What is the problem?
Your version of npm does not support the caret (^) version specifier, so you should upgrade npm. You will probably also want to upgrade node too.
I have Node.js installed on my system (v0.10.26) and I am trying to install the bower package manager. But I am not able to install. I keep getting an error. I placed my npm-debug.txt with jsfiddle for your reference.

How can I fix this?
The is you have to specify the path to which bower should be installed. The path should be added either in your zshrc file or your bashrc file like this.
export PATH =/usr/local/lib/node_modules/:$PATH

The error tells you what the problem is:

npm ERR! Required: {"node":">=0.6.19"}
npm ERR! Actual: {"npm":"1.1.0-3","node":"0.6.9"}
You have a version 0.6.9 of node installed, but the dependency package mongodb requires a version greater or equal to 0.6.19. You can upgrade by doing:
sudo npm install n -g

I have no idea how to fix this. Any suggestions?
Looking at chokidar's package.json file for versions >=0.2.6 tells me that it requires node.js version 0.6.10 or newer. You are trying to install it for node 0.6.7.
Furthermore I'd suggest using Derby with node 0.8.x. At least I have had no installation issues with Derby on node 0.8.x.
I've installed NodeJs and tried to install Socket.io
Socket.io installation fails consecutively. I've tried several differend NodeJS versions (0.6.15,0.6.16,0.6.17,0.7.8). All fail to install socket.io.
The full log can be found on pastebin.

Is there a workaround? How can I install Socket.IO on Windows 7 x64?
(Works for me with 0.6.15, win7 x64)
I'm not sure how you installed node, but it seems like you don't have it in your path.
Try editing your PATH variable and add C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs\
Also, why are you installing in Program Files. This should be installed in your project folder. If you want to install a package globally you should use npm -g, but socket.io is not meant to be installed globally.
Problem solved on Node.js v0.8.3
