NPM problem "EBADENGINE" which I fail to solve

MMRIZE

@Ix
Install recent nodejs.
I don’t know how you have installed the current version of nodejs. So I cannot give you an exact advice.
Generally I prefer to manage node version with nvm

Hey @MMRIZE 👋

I used the following command:

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.7/install.sh | bash

which I found here

this is “nvm” isn’t it?

sdetweil

@MMRIZE 1st line of 1st included message image shows his nvm command

says using 18.18.0

the npm ci says using 18.17.1

try npm i

I use n, which is a nodejs version of nvm

sudo mpn install n

n version
n list
n --help

I also tried this.
Here are the results:

mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PublicTransportHafas $ n list
node/22.2.0
mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PublicTransportHafas $ n version

  Error: invalid version 'version'

@Ix version is the one you want to use

n 18

n 18.18

need sudo to change, as it write to /usr/local/bin which is protected
(as as nvm does)

see
n --help

@sdetweil

I already tried and changed my used version to v18.18 via nvm (what obviously didn’t work)

Now I installed “n” and tried again with your method.
Here are the results:

mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ sudo n 18.18
  installing : node-v18.18.2
       mkdir : /usr/local/n/versions/node/18.18.2
       fetch : https://nodejs.org/dist/v18.18.2/node-v18.18.2-linux-arm64.tar.xz
     copying : node/18.18.2
/usr/bin/n: Zeile 746: /usr/local/bin/node: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
   installed :  (with npm 9.8.1)

There is an error: “Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden” which translates into “File or directory not found” (Sry for my German OS 😅)

so there is another issue

/usr/local/n/versions/node/18.18.2

does that directory exist?

I’ve never had any problem with n, on windows, linux or mac.

do a

which node

so we can see where it is coming from

yes I think:

mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd /usr/local/bin
mirror@raspberrypi:/usr/local/bin $ ls
corepack  node  npm  npx

node is colored green in this ls

@Ix note its NOT usr/local/BIN its usr/local/N
(uppercase fore emphasis here)
