Question

I get the following error while trying to install forever (sudo npm install forever -g):

npm info bundling for forever@0.8.2 [ 'git://github.com/bmeck/node-fork.git' ]
npm ERR! Doesn't exist: git://github.com/bmeck/node-fork.git
npm ERR! Error installing git://github.com/bmeck/node-fork.git
npm ERR! install failed Error: ENOENT, No such file or directory 'git://github.com/bmeck/node-fork.git'
npm info install failed rollback

I realized I didn’t have git-core installed, so I apt-got it, and was able to clone from that git address. Is there something else I’m forgetting?

Answer 1

Found out I was running an older version of NPM (0.2.19) upgraded using: curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sudo sh

and sudo npm install forever -g worked
