Cannot login to admin area

[Shabna Z]

When installing Keystone it reaches an error near the end of the process:

Error: EACCES, mkdir '/Users/s.zaheer/.npm/update-notifier/0.1.10'

npm ERR!  { [Error: EACCES, mkdir '/Users/s.zaheer/.npm/update-notifier/0.1.10']

npm ERR!   errno: 3,

npm ERR!   code: 'EACCES',

npm ERR!   path: '/Users/s.zaheer/.npm/update-notifier/0.1.10',

npm ERR!   parent: 'nodemon' }

npm ERR! 

npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator.

However keystone still runs and the server starts up. 

Then when trying to log in as admin it just says wrong username/password combo even though it's perfectly correct. Any help?

Hi Shabna,

Sounds like a permission issue with one/a few of your directories. That could be why Keystone's running up until a point.

There's a very popular SO that sheds some light on this:

To get admin permissions on your .npm directory:

sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm

Hope that helps.
