Okey, in the very first line it says:

npm warn EBADENGINE Unsupported engine {
npm warn EBADENGINE   package: '[email protected]',
npm warn EBADENGINE   required: { node: '>=0.8 <=9' },
npm warn EBADENGINE   current: { node: 'v18.20.4', npm: '10.7.0' }
npm warn EBADENGINE }

which means if I'm correct, that I would need to use node not newer then 9 (bit I have 18).

Would it be possible to mark this requirement in the README as well, please?

Operating system

macos

I'm getting the same error. I think the issue is limited to macOS in Apple Silicon.

Dec 04 '24 14:12 vinothkannans

Have u found a solution? I also get the same error

Dec 06 '24 09:12 farid-maulana

I'm afraid, that if we want to have a fix, we need to fix this. But since I'm not that aware of what could break if I just start updating dependencies and who knows how much time it would require, I didn't hopped on that train.

Dec 06 '24 10:12 roncsak

I have a MacBook M2 Max (Apple Silicon), 32 GB, running Sequoia 15.1.1... and I believe I solved this (after 4 hours and trial and error):

Set the correct php version to 8.3 (8.4. was not compatible):
```
brew install [email protected]
```
Linked this version over any other:
```
brew unlink php
brew link --overwrite [email protected]
```

Installed the latest composer as of December 10, 2024 11:32 PM (per [their site instructions](https://getcomposer.org/download/)):

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'dac665fdc30fdd8ec78b38b9800061b4150413ff2e3b6f88543c636f7cd84f6db9189d43a81e5503cda447da73c7e5b6') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"

sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Switched node version to 18 (ChatGPT suggested this from an error I received):
```
nvm install 18                              
nvm use 18
```
Problem: node-sass has been deprecated in favor of sass (Dart Sass), which has no binary dependencies and works natively on Apple Silicon.
```
npm uninstall node-sass
npm install sass
```
Problem: node-gyp uses Python’s distutils, which may not be installed by default.
```
python3 -m ensurepip
python3 -m pip install setuptools
```
Reinstall or update node-gyp globally:
```
npm install -g node-gyp
```

4. Click the Test button to ensure the connection works.
5. Click Connect to save the connection and continue
6. Press CMD + K to select/create a database
7. Click New.. enter the name akaunting then click OK
8. Done (yes, you can click Open if ya want, lol)
Back in Terminal in the root directory, run the suggested command to install dependencies:
```
composer install ; npm install ; npm run dev
```
Note: ignore any errors. They all get resolved as you go.
I ran the following modified code from the install steps:

Note: I added the extra info for db-host because I read somewhere that Apple Silicon and localhost don’t play nice. Also removed the --db-password.
```
php artisan install --db-name="akaunting" --db-username="root"  --db-host="127.0.0.1" --admin-email="[email protected]" --admin-password="123456" 
```
When asked for the database password, just hit enter (leaving the password blank).

A weird note: sometimes during my tests, I had to run this command twice. So, if you see an error, just run it again. 🫠
Extra step I had to do because I am using Laravel Valet:
1. in the project directory, run:
```
valet use [email protected] --force
valet restart
```
  Then run:
```
composer global update
```
Visit my local site url (akaunting.test because I am using Laravel Valet) and login using the credentials you set in step 9.
Success

I have a MacBook M2 Max (Apple Silicon), 32 GB, running Sequoia 15.1.1... and I believe I solved this (after 4 hours and trial and error):
Set the correct php version to 8.3 (8.4. was not compatible):
brew install [email protected]
Linked this version over any other:
brew unlink php
brew link --overwrite [email protected]
Installed the latest composer as of December 10, 2024 11:32 PM (per [their site instructions](https://getcomposer.org/download/)):
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'dac665fdc30fdd8ec78b38b9800061b4150413ff2e3b6f88543c636f7cd84f6db9189d43a81e5503cda447da73c7e5b6') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Switched node version to 18 (ChatGPT suggested this from an error I received):
nvm install 18                              
nvm use 18
Problem: node-sass has been deprecated in favor of sass (Dart Sass), which has no binary dependencies and works natively on Apple Silicon.
npm uninstall node-sass
npm install sass
Problem: node-gyp uses Python’s distutils, which may not be installed by default.
python3 -m ensurepip
python3 -m pip install setuptools
Reinstall or update node-gyp globally:
npm install -g node-gyp

Hi @cuneytsenturk ,

this issue consists two types of possible errors:

errors from environment (php, node and extra step because of Laravel Valet)
depdendency incompatibility (node-sass, node-gyp)

Do you think you could update the original dependencies, to have them working equally on any machine, please? The ideal situation would be to work with the very same dependencies no matter what is the OS.

Taking extra steps regards the environment because of macOS is not nice but it is more acceptable.

@qwatts-dev Could you please publish the repository so I can fork it? I would appreciate it.
