I am 1 hour into NodeJS, so bear with me. One of the packages my project requires is JSDom. After prodding much of the Internet I found that JSDOm has a dependency called contextify, which is somehow handled within the JSDom installation in itself. So this is what I Do:
sudo npm install jsdom
and everything goes fine, until I get the following:
gyp WARN install got an error, rolling back install
gyp ERR! rebuild error Error: EACCES, stat '/root/.node-gyp/0.8.2'
gyp ERR! not ok
npm ERR! [email protected] install: `node-gyp rebuild`

STUMPED!!!
I found that for contextify to run on Ubuntu, I must have make, python and G++. I have them all. So what exactly am I missing out here?
FYI, the commands preceding the JSDOM install attempt are:
mkdir ~/.node-gyp
chmod -R 777 ~/.node-gyp
I also, tried the following:
npm install -g node-gyp
npm install contextify
At the second command, I run into the same problem.
you might need to do
sudo npm install -g npm
and try again (it worked on my mac)
or see this Error installing contextify- node-gyp rebuild failed
if you did a standard apt-get on node it could well be behind the times and taking the latest bundle release might fix it
