anybody ran into this problem ?
thanks in advance for help.
Let me guess, is it happening on a Win7 machine 64 bits?
I got the same error and it was already reported on testacular github
The only workaround I found was installing node.js 32 bits instead of 64 bits version.
I encourage you to post another comment on their github so maybe it will be reconsidered
The problem was in the versions as the error log suggests. On Ubuntu 12.10 install NodeJS with sudo apt-get install nodejs will result in installing nodejs 0.6, but you need nodejs version 0.8 to install testacular so I followed this tutorial to install nodejs 0.8

Could someone please help with this? I do not understand why this is happening since when I do npm info loadash.merge, the module version is clearly present. I have also tried to see what my $NODE_PATH contains (as some answers on stackoverflow suggest), and it seems to be pointing towards the correct path of node, or at least the path where nvm installed node:
/home/username/.nvm/versions/node/v10.15.1/bin/node
Additionally, I am not sure about this particular warning:
npm WARN engine webdriverio#5.4.9: wanted: {"node":">= 4.8.5"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.15","npm":"1.3.5"}) My node version is 10.15.1 and not 0.10.15
I think you're missing the css-value library based on this part of the stack trace:
npm ERR! Error: No compatible version found: css-value#'^0.0.1'
Try to resolve this by doing: npm i css-value
Additionally, your stack trace is complaining about using an outdated version of Node. I would consider updating node since your version is very old:
npm WARN engine webdriverio#5.4.9: wanted: {"node":">= 4.8.5"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.15","npm":"1.3.5"})
Your issue is probably with using sudo in the npm install. You can check this out by using sudo node -v and it will probably give you a different node version than your nvm installed one, this would indicate that node in your server is broken in some places due some previous installation. To circumvent it I suggest the following that has worked for me for similar issues.
sudo su
nvm alias default 10.15.1
npm cache clean --force
npm install webdriverio
If it still gives syntax errors due to dependencies, use
npm install webdriverio --unsafe-perm

Any help on the error or how I can manually install the library?
For Manual installation:
1.Go to npm site search for "ari-client".
2.Click the given "github" link , from there you can download as ZIP file.
3.Extract it and use in your project
I am trying to download mongoose into my node.js project via npm.
The command is npm install mongoose. However, this leads to the below output, and eventually leads to an error. The only things in the mongoose directory are the dependencies (in the node_modules folder). Any other package will work, but mongoose repeatedly fails. I've tried npm install -g mongoose and sudo npm install mongoose, but neither of them work either.
Any ideas what might be going wrong?

Use npm cache clean.
After that, install as normal, and the download should proceed correctly.
stop node server if its running, that was the problem in my case
I faced the same issue. Try this:
npm install -s mongoose
This will install it on your app, in fact on your package.json. It will be available as dependencies so you can easily require it.
Otherwise try
sudo npm install -g mongoose
That should also work, from your output above I can see that you haven't tried that.
Make index.js file in the folder where you have made the empty file of node using the command
npm init
Now try to install mongoose using command
npm install mongoose
If this doesn't work
delete the folder in which you have made empty node project.
then again make the same folder and then use the above instruction.
"npm cache clean --force ->> npm i mongoose" Worked for me.
It was just a problem with my local machine's NPM so make sure to restart your machine. It worked for me. 1

It looks like it is trying to run a nix command at hiredis, which fails, crashing the entire install. Is there any way to get around this? I have heard plenty of Windows users using node-inspector, but perhaps this is a dependency from a newer version. Any ideas?
As M. Laing said, you're missing GNU make, which is required by hiredis (a redis connector).
You don't need redis for node-inspector, but it's required by socket.io, even though it's for a completely optional feature. I've opened an issue on github about that:
https://github.com/LearnBoost/socket.io/issues/978
While this gets resolved, here's a work around:
Download socket.io's ZIP archive from github and unzip it.
Edit the package.json file and remove redis from the dependencies.
Run a cmd, enter the folder and type npm install.
Type npm install node-inspector again.
Since socket.io is now installed, it should now succeed.
I searched for a long time, but haven't found the right answer yet.
I'm not the only one who has/had problems installing Socket.IO >0.7.7 but other solutions didn't work for me.
A possible problem could be an old version of GNU tar (version is 1.19) but I don´t know how to upgrade it or if it is possible at all.
An Update to a newer version of Ubuntu is not possible for me at this time.
If there is no way to update tar or something similar: Can I install Socket.IO without npm?
