Multiple errors on install (docs not sufficient - Linux)

[mixmastamyk]

Been trying for hours to get this installed on ubuntu natty. Have worked thru a number of issues, but can't get past this one:

node jjserver.js
node.js:134
        throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
        ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined
    at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/local/lib/node/.npm/express/1.0.7/package/lib/express/server.js:87:44)
    at Module._compile (module.js:402:26)
    at Object..js (module.js:408:10)

Answers here did not work: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5161828/express-framework-giving-a-very-strange-error

I now have a number of packages installed, but unsure how to proceed.

Install a fresh copy.
in the makefule replace
$(NPM) install node-dev@0.0.5
with
$(NPM) install node-dev@0.1.5

Make a copy of paramsLocal.js.Template as paramsLocal.js and insert your path to python.
Edit Params.js port to an unused port.

Now, run:
$ sudo -s
$ make python-extension
$make node-packages
$node jjserver.js

Tell me how that goes!

[mixmastamyk]

By install a fresh copy I assume you meant wipe the folder and do another git clone. Is that correct?

Anyhow I did the above and get the same error. :(

[JeremyRubin]

Yes, that is what I meant.

Can you remove node and npm from your system, reinstall, and then retry?

[mixmastamyk]

Ok, looks like that powered thru the issue above. Seems to be running now.

Thanks for the help. More specific instructions for Linux or a short script would be great.

Hello,

I am a dummy beginner. I try to deploy in fresh virtual server. But there are some error while i try to do as your instruction above, starting from make python-extension. Could you help me?

Hi this code is super old and not maintained. I highly doubt it will work without major updates.

@rahulbot So, do you have the running one?

[rahulbot]

No, not for years.
