I'm trying to install Forever to use with Node.js. I'm installing it using 'npm install forever -g'. It seems to install fine, but when I run the command 'forever' it's not found.
Maybe I'm not installing it in the right location? Where should it be installed to?
Any help would be great! Thank you!

To start running a script with forever, use the forever start command, followed by the script name.
You have to run forever install using sudo:
sudo npm install forever -g
That should work, but check 'npm bin -g' to make sure that directory is on your path.
