Hi,

You probably named your own project mathjax-node which npm does not allow.

> [14 verbose stack] Error: Refusing to install package with name "mathjax-node" under a package

> [14 verbose stack] also called "mathjax-node". Did you name your project the same

> [14 verbose stack] as the dependency you're installing?

Try renaming it. Otherwise, you will need to provide more information.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi,

I have followed the https://github.com/mathjax/MathJax-node guideline and using the below command for installation.

npm install mathjax-node

Hi,

That command works. The error you get indicates that the folder you run this command from has a conflicting package.json. Are you perhaps running this command in a copy of the github repository? That would cause this error as it's the wrong way to go about npm; in a copy of the repository you would run `npm install` to install the dependencies instead.

If you run `$ npm install mathjax-node` in in a new and empty folder, it should work fine. If not, you have some issue with your node / npm installation.

Regards,

Peter.
