Error while installing on rPI2 about hap-nodejs HOT 9 CLOSED

@a-i-ks What's the version of nodejs and npm are you using?

from hap-nodejs.

I had installed the latest version of nodejs accidentally. Then tried to uninstall nodejs again, by deleting all files of nodejs manually. After that I installed node_0.10.36_armhf.deb.

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ node -v
v0.10.36
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ npm -v
1.4.28

@a-i-ks you shouldn't need to install the extra node-gyp manually. npm bundled its own copy of node-gyp. Can you try skip that step and just do npm rebuild and see if that works?

from hap-nodejs.

@a-i-ks I found that the pre-built version of node that you installed didn't work for me. Try compiling yourself: http://www.armhf.com/node-js-for-the-beaglebone-black/ but replacing with the 0.10.36 version of Node. That seemed to work fine for me.

@KhaosT I tried to skip the node-gyp installation step and just do npm rebuild. Unfortunately I ran into this error, when I execute "sudo npm rebuild".
pi@raspberrypi ~/HAP-NodeJS $ npm rebuild

@bjtitus Thanks for your suggestion. I compiled the source code of Node 0.10.36 and installed it as described in the instruction. But after I execute the command 'sudo npm rebuild' in the HAP-NodeJS folder I get the same error message (see above).

Thank you for your help.

@a-i-ks "stack Error: EACCES", are you sure you have write access to that folder?

from hap-nodejs.

@KhaosT
when I execute "ls -l" I get the following output for the HAP-NodeJS folder
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Apr 6 19:52 HAP-NodeJS
Shouldn't I have write permission in any case, when I execute the command 'sudo npm rebuild' (because of sudo)? KhaosT I can give you SSH remote access to my PI, if it would help to figure out, what's wrong.? It would be so good to have an HomeKit Accessory Server running.

@a-i-ks you didn't use sudo ... "pi@raspberrypi ~/HAP-NodeJS $ npm rebuild"

from hap-nodejs.

Ah true. However, I just tried it with sudo. Same issue :(
