node-gyp EACCES infinite loop Error during install?

MasterJames commented 8 years ago

I had done this first npm install -g node-gyp

but doing npm install webworker-threads --save

Results with this infinite loop warning?

gyp WARN EACCES attempting to reinstall using temporary dev dir "node_modules/webworker-threads/.node-gyp"
gyp WARN EACCES user "root" does not have permission to access the dev dir "node_modules/webworker-threads/.node-gyp/6.9.1"

I CTRL-BRK out of. I tried making the directory mkdir -p but it's parent .node-gyp is deleted after same error.

I am always root via sudo su, (and assign permissions, etc. as needed.) [Alas the parent folder, is mounted over NFS, which has never been a problem.]

{ seems there are some things still I could explore for solutions to the cause of this odd problem ? } _[removing --save wasn't one of them, nor chown -R root node_modules/ ]_

if no NFS, and therefore copied to Ubuntu Server latest VM.

Either a user or root both get the same error above, which ends like this below.

Wait a minute I see it seems to have installed, it has to be native FS and can't be root during install, but runs as root after.

Maybe there is some simple work to improve those issues, and worth looking into, or if anybody reading has a clue what either issues have a solution. I'm not clear on the C and node-gyp stuff.
