Problem running socketstream on both ubuntu and debian

[brianconnoly]

I tried installing socketstream about 6 times on clean system (cloud).
I used script, provided by this community. Tried doing it line-to-line or creating a ./ss.sh. Even tried to build all parts of source manually.
Here is error i get every time I start test app:

17 Jul 19:51:24 - Starting SocketStream server...

/root/local/node/lib/node_modules/socketstream/node_modules/stylus/lib/visitor/evaluator.js:539
Evaluator.prototype.visitImport = function(import){
^^^^^^

node.js:189
throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick

Error: Unable to start SocketStream as we're missing stylus.
Please install with 'npm install stylus'. Please also check the version number if you're using a version of npm below 1.0

Hi Brian,

I'm going to have a look at replicating the issue. When you say you used a recipe provided by the community, did you mean the instructions listed in the install.md file, or the Linode StackScript?

Caught this problem at unstable version of node.js - v0.5.1.

[brianconnoly]

I mean the instructions listed in the install.md file

@madgnu - Thanks for the tip.

@brianconnoly - I'm going to amend the instructions to use Node.js v0.4.9. In the meantime, if you have a look at the Linode StackScript I use, you can find instructions on installing Node.js v0.4.9:

Let me know once you've setup fine on your box.

Thank you!
It would be nice if you will put link in the README.md file!
I'll try it later.
