1) npm should be stable version, webcompat.com doesn't work with latest version 2) If sudo make install then sudo python run.py

miketaylr commented 9 years ago

@hallvors how do we determine what's "stable"? Did you install npm from GitHub to get a non-stable version?

karlcow commented 9 years ago

s/ @hallvors / @haseebgit / above ;)

miketaylr commented 9 years ago

Oops, thanks @karlcow.

haseebgit commented 9 years ago

Updating npm leads to beta version i think, so therefore i ran sudo npm install -g n sudo n stable and it worked

miketaylr commented 9 years ago

Hang on, n is a NodeJS version manager. Is this bug actually about which version of Node.JS works w/ webcompat, rather than npm? (That would be less surprising than npm).

miketaylr commented 9 years ago

@haseebgit can you paste the actual error you ran into?

haseebgit commented 9 years ago

I have a screenshot of the error http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/666327/ee348609612a2318fd44c76faec81504

miketaylr commented 9 years ago

Hm. That error is about something not working with Intern 2.2.0. Does npm-debug.log give any clues?

@haseebgit here's my output on os x with node 4 and latest npm3:

Try downgrading to old npm 2 or reinstalling... it MAY BE an ubuntu issue, but I hope not.

karlcow commented 7 years ago

@haseebgit is it still an issue? Or did the project move so much that it is not a valid issue anymore?

haseebgit commented 7 years ago

@karlcow safe to close the issue :)

zoepage commented 7 years ago

@haseebgit thank you :)
