cannot install pm2

[sdetweil]

someone else just reported a similar failure on a pi 0.

so, I reflashed my sd card with buster and ran the installer without any issues on a pi 0w

[mrlowndes]

I ran your script and it didn’t finish - Unable to install dependencies! Also, this website has locked me out of singing into my account from my pi…

[mrlowndes]

@sdetweil could it not be working because npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v10.15.2?

[sdetweil]

@mrlowndes hm I don’t know anything about how this website works. Just another user.

Can u show me the ~/install.log?

[sdetweil]

@mrlowndes no. Just a warning.

[mrlowndes]

@sdetweil ok how do I access the log? Also, I’ve been trying some other stuff since my last message

[mrlowndes]

[sdetweil]

I am starting with another sd card… both users reporting problems had node 10.20.1…

[mrlowndes]

@sdetweil oh interesting. When I install Raspbian it I have 10.15, the only reason I upgraded it was because I was struggling with the manual install documentation and I thought that warning was more important than it is?

[sdetweil]

@mrlowndes when I install raspian, I have never had node already installed… my script does all that
