      @Ameyalgudkar no you did NOT use my script, OR follow the instructions… the instructions explicitly tell you to install nan

      https://awesome-alexa.js.org/#/installation

      my script, which is same as the instructions for this module, plus the step to add the one dependency
      over and over we asked if u followed the instructions… but u have not…

      #!/bin/bash
      cd ~/MagicMirror/modules # Navigate to module folder 
      if [  ! -e   ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-awesome-alexa ]; then
         git clone https://github.com/dolanmiu/MMM-awesome-alexa.git # Clone this repository
       fi
       cd MMM-awesome-alexa # go into the module directory
       v=$(apt -qq list libatlas-base-dev 2>/dev/null)
       if [ "$v". == "." ]; then 
         sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev
       fi
       npm install --only=prod # Install depdendencies
       cd node_modules
       rm -rf snowboy # Remove the installed snowboy
       git clone https://github.com/Kitt-AI/snowboy.git # Manually get snowboy from git
       cd snowboy # Go into the /snowboy directory
       rm -rf node_modules
       npm install nan --save # Make sure you install this in the /snowboy directory        /< --------------------------------------------
       npm install node-pre-gyp@0.12.0 --save # Make sure you install this in the /snowboy directory
       npm install # Make sure you install in the /snowboy directory
       npm run prepublish # Make sure you run this in the /snowboy directory
       npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild # Make sure you install this in the /snowboy directory
       npm install nan # Make sure you install this in the /snowboy directory
       ./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild # Build snowboy to your device specifications, in the /snowboy directory

        @sdetweil now I really dont know what else I have to follow, you can see each and every step I did, I literally copy pasted all the commands as they are. in the same order and directories, I havent included the first few steps mentioned as they get executed every time. I have posted every step which has got errors.

          @Ameyalgudkar ignore the errors and keep going… it WILL FAIL til the last step…

          which is why I offered the script to do it for you

            @sdetweil how should I run the script? I tried the bash c but that didnt worked so did everything from script manually.
            I will run the script exactly as you say and then will show you result if thats ok. also please let me know in which directory should I run the script.

              cut and paste this line into a terminal window

              bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/omrx3vztjp738hf/do-install.sh?dl=0)"

                @Ameyalgudkar said in MMM Awesome Alexa installing snowboy.:

                I tried the bash c

                looks like you forgot the - in front of c

                bash -c do-install.sh
                and didn’t mark it executable
                chmod +x do-install.sh

                (if u already downloaded the file)

                  @sdetweil Thank you! I finally found my mistake. Yes it does work when your script is followed exactly.

                      @sdetweil Okay, would gladly like to tell that this did get the errors but it worked even with them. I didn’t knew until now that its fine to get those errors as no one mentions them anywhere in the scripts. Now the one thing is that the alexa only listens once and then stops listening to hotword. My mic is working and I have checked that. Speakers are working, I read somewhere about the electron and Chrome issue not sure if that would be the reason. But if that is then I will try, if that doesn’t work ill ask.

                      Thank you for the help and support
