bower ESUDO Cannot be run with sudo

[Johnwulp]

Hi,

I'm trying to install this package, but it is failing at the brew-ui@1.4.0 postinstall script.

During npm install i receive this error:

[root@srv01 BrewCore]# npm install

ws@0.4.31 install /home/nodejs/BrewCore/node_modules/brew-ui/node_modules/socket.io-client/node_modules/engine.io-client/node_modules/ws (node-gyp rebuild 2> builderror.log) || (exit 0)

brew-ui@1.4.0 postinstall /home/nodejs/BrewCore/node_modules/brew-ui bower install

You can however run a command with sudo using --allow-root option

bower install --allow-root seemed to do the trick.

You shouldn't run/install node/bower with sudo. Isn't it possible that you did it in this way?

[Johnwulp]

The problem is i didn't installed it with sudo, so don't know why this message appears. On my VPS i also have the same error.

[Johnwulp]

On my vps i have node 0.11. But still no luck.

This is my install log:

I'm using this project on Heroku with continuously deployed by Codeship without problem. But I will check it. I've no idea yet why do you got this error.

[Johnwulp]

I Created a app on Heroku, and it's running from there right now, so it's working. I also got no clue why this won't run on my VPS without this error. If i add the --allow-root option is does install the brew-ui. Maybe a solution is to add this to the postinstall in the brew-ui package?
