Problems with node.js installation

[André Adrian]

Hi,

after using tiddlywiki on the local filesystem for a while, itried to install it on my server. The server is an Ubuntu 14.04LTS, i installed nodejs and npm via the package manger. 

Following the instructions on the wiki:

root@v01:~# npm install -g tiddlywiki

npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/tiddlywiki

npm http 200 https://registry.npmjs.org/tiddlywiki

npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/tiddlywiki/-/tiddlywiki-5.1.3.tgz

npm http 200 https://registry.npmjs.org/tiddlywiki/-/tiddlywiki-5.1.3.tgz

/usr/local/bin/tiddlywiki -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/tiddlywiki/tiddlywiki.js

tiddl...@5.1.3 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/tiddlywiki

root@v01:~# tiddlywiki --version

5.1.3

root@v01:~# tiddlywiki mynewwiki --init server

Wiki folder 'mynewwiki' is missing a 'tiddlywiki.info' file

I tried to make the directory by hand, but that doen't work either.

root@v01:~# mkdir mynewwiki

root@v01:~# cp /usr/local/lib/node_modules/tiddlywiki/editions/server/tiddlywiki.info mynewwiki/

root@v01:~# tiddlywiki mynewwiki --init server

Error: Wiki folder is not empty

I'm clearly doing something wron, but what?

Thank you,

Andre

Hi Ton, 

that explains my problem. 

I'll just wait until it gets fixed.

Many thanks,

Hi André

You could also install 5.1.2 with `npm install -g tiddl...@5.1.2`,

Best wishes

Jeremy.
