Question

I’m trying to install npm using the commands from here: http://howtonode.org/introduction-to-npm

Specifically, when I run:

curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

This is the error I get...

node cli.js cache clean
TypeError: Object #<an EventEmitter> has no method  on 
at Object.<anonymous> (/home/sanjay/npm-1285345468/lib/utils/rm-rf.js:12:9)

at Module._compile (module:385:23)
at module:413:20
at fs:52:23
make: *** [uninstall] Error 1
sanjay@sanjay-desktop:~$

Not sure if I am doing something silly, any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Answer 1

That article is quite outdated.

Since version 0.6.3, npm is bundled into node.js.

Install the latest version of node from http://nodejs.org/ and you ll get npm aswell.

Answer 2

I had the same error - upgrading to the latest stable version made it go away and I m happily npm ing.
