npm install -g pm2-zabbix - Doesn't work

[ghost]

Hello I've try install your package and get this error:

32 verbose Linux 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64
33 verbose argv "/usr/bin/node" "/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "pm2-zabbix"
34 verbose node v8.4.0
35 verbose npm  v5.3.0
36 error Error while executing:

36 error
36 error fatal: failed to stat '.': Permission denied
36 error
36 error exited with error code: 128
37 verbose exit [ 1, true ]

Like you can see, this command: /bin/git ls-remote -h -t ssh://git@github.com/greatcare/node-zabbix-sender.git - cannot execute if you don't have account (with pub key) on github

Hm, interesting. Does the HTTPS protocol work for you from that host to any other host on the Web? I just tested with npm v5.3.0 and it correctly downloads the dependency without requiring ssh access to GitHub.

Supposedly, npm tries HTTPS first and then falls back to SSH if that fails for whatever reason. Maybe HTTPS is simply failing for you.

Yes, HTTPS work fine for that host. You can try reproduce with issue by using clear VM (ubuntu/centos) with latest node.

Just checked with Docker image ubuntu, with latest Node. It seems to work fine and does not try to use ssh. Just to make sure, could you test whether your git can clone https repositories? git clone https://github.com/greatcare/node-zabbix-sender.git

@Warfunck I see. This seems to be an oddity in npm's resolving of modules tagged as github:. I have not been able to reproduce the above issue yet - suspecting something is on the local npm's end. Could you try to replicate exactly what npm is doing?

npm install -g github:greatcare/node-zabbix-sender#v0.3.0

The above command does work for me on npm@5.6.0 and also on other hosts with various npm versions. However, one difference I've noticed is this invocation: /usr/bin/git ls-remote -h -t ssh://git@github.com/greatcare/node-zabbix-sender.git

On my test machine, npm produces this instead: /usr/bin/git ls-remote -h -t git://github.com/greatcare/node-zabbix-sender.git

Surprisingly, both appear to work, although one of them (the latter) is clearly not using SSH.

Let's see what installing node-zabbix-sender (first command above) does for you, and if that fails, check where git ls-remote ... is going wrong.

Thank you for answering my question. That's what i got:

AND

/usr/bin/git ls-remote -h -t ssh://git@github.com/greatcare/node-zabbix-sender.git Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

So apparently npm is using SSH, instead of HTTP, for cloning the git repository, and failing for lack of public key (which is understandable). I have not yet been able to reproduce this behavior of npm myself, though - must investigate what causes it to choose one protocol (URL scheme) or the other. Do you perchance have a customized npm or git configuration?

[Warfunck]

We downgraded npm, installed the module, then updated it back. Now it s ok, thx a lot.

I have the same problem since we upgraded from node 6/npm 3 to node 8.9/npm 5.6, when doing "sudo npm -g install pm2-zabbix". However, "npm install pm2-zabbix" works.
