Working on Ec2 on AWS. I have installed Node.js and it works fine. But the problem arises when trying to install npm. I am using the following command to install it: <pre class="prettyprint"><code>sudo curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh </code></pre> But the install seems to freeze... I get "fetching: http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/npm-1.0.106.tgz" at the prompt and it stays on like this. Have any idea what is going on here?

Installing NPM on AWS EC2

Working on Ec2 on AWS.

I have installed Node.js and it works fine.

But the problem arises when trying to install npm.

I am using the following command to install it:

sudo curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

But the install seems to freeze... I get "fetching: http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/npm-1.0.106.tgz" at the prompt and it stays on like this.

Have any idea what is going on here?
