Issue Installing Iron-Meteor on Ubuntu(Solved)

I followed the steps on Node.js website and node got installed properly . While I tried using the npm to install package i ran into issues which where after several attempts couldnt be resolved … tried every solution… and I almost installed node 10 times with every new solution … (removed the older ones ) … .
Digital ocean described NVM ways … and many other websites with step by step tutorials to install nodejs and npm to resolve 1issues on ubuntu 14.04

Linuxbrew was the last try I did and it worked thats all …

Nodejs has several different instructions depending on how you want to install.

There are at least four options (except for nvm which is third party)

  • source install from tar.gz
  • binary install from tar.gz
  • install from deb
  • install with package manager

So depending on which one of these four options you chose, you have different paths.

That’s why I’m trying to get that answer from you :smile:

Told ya I tried every way , I have tried every option you mentioned in there

Not sure if these tips help.

To take ownership of permission issues:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm

and if problem still persists, I assume it’s related to building source with node-gyp, we can try remove node and npm; remove node_modules folder as well and reinstall node and npm and so on with packages. This should works.
