Hello there,

I'm trying to use node-xmpp-bosh in order to set up a bosh connector. I've already intalled node.js which come with npm. however, when I execute the command "npm install node-xmpp-bosh" I have the following error .

npm ERR! registry error parsing json npm ERR! SyntaxError: Unexpected token A npm ERR! RESTRICTED ACCESS npm ERR! at Object.parse (native) npm ERR! at RegClient.

Then I thought may be it is the json data which is wrong; so I copied the resulted json format and validated with "http://jsonlint.com/" .. no error was detected.

then I created a package.json file, pasted the json in it, and launched the command "npm install" at the folder where I created the package.json file .. that didn't work either and this is what I have.

I don't know what I did wrong .. so any help would be appreciated

Thank you

Please could you post the contents of the file E:\nodeJs\npm-debug.log here?

This also might be a good idea:

npm ERR! install Couldn't read dependencies

Ok I've found the solution .. actually when I've set the proxy variable in the .npmrc file with registry = "http://registry.npmjs.org/" instead of "registry = https://registry.npmjs.org/" .. and added the "proxy" variable with the following "http://domain\login:password@proxy_IP:port/" .. but now I'm facing another problem .. when I launch the "npm install node-xmpp-bosh" command all the packages seems to be downloaded well .. but I get the following error : "Failed at the node-expat@2.0.0 install script.This is most likely a problem with the node-expat package," .. so I would like to know if there is a way to get around it by getting an older package or something ?

Thank you for your help
