      @MMRIZE said in NPM problem "EBADENGINE" which I fail to solve:

      Install recent nodejs.
      I don’t know how you have installed the current version of nodejs. So I cannot give you an exact advice.

      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?

        @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

              @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

                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

                        yeah, but see the error message I posted above: it seems to get the directory wrong as well. sry for me being a newbie in this case

                        I really appreciate you helping me here!

                        edit:
                        file is there:

                        mirror@raspberrypi:/usr/local/n/versions/node $ ls
                        18.18.2  22.2.0
