Hello Everyone,

The usual way of upgrading tiddly on node.js seemed to stop for me all of a sudden. Following is what I am trying to do:

[deniz@lem~]$ sudo npm update -g tiddlywiki
[deniz@lem~]$
[deniz@lem~]$ node -v
v7.10.0
[deniz@lem~]$ tiddlywiki --version
5.1.13
[deniz@lem~]$

Any ideas ?

Hi Deniz,

What does "which tiddlywiki" report?

Uninstall and then install again

sudo npm un -g tiddlywiki

Rob/Danielo,

[deniz@lem~]$ which tiddlywiki
/usr/local/bin/tiddlywiki

So if I uninstall tiddlywiki and install again, would not that break my current settings, plugins, and the theme etc? This is just not a vanilla install where reinstalling is not a problem...

I am trying to understand why the usual upgrade is broken, and what I can do to fix that?


Thank you!

-D

If you have tiddlywiki installed globally I really doubt that you have modified anything about it. Your tiddlers inside the directory you pass to tiddlywiki and plugins are defined in the tiddlywiki.info document. Tiddlywiki is just a program that reads and servers your tiddlers .

Ok, thank you Danielo!, reinstalling seemed to solve the issue!  And everything else seems to be in place!

[deniz@lem]$ tiddlywiki --version
5.1.14

Thank you!

Regards,

Deniz Rende

You are welcome Deniz.

Jeremy, we should think about adding this to some kind of FAQ
