Failed to run create command

[alwint3r]

Hi,

I encountered this error when running command: makerboard create my7688 And here's the error stack:

fs.js:844
  return binding.stat(pathModule._makeLong(path));
                 ^

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/usr/lib/node_modules/makerboard/data'

I am using elementary os freya (ubuntu 14.04) and have npm v3.10, node v4.4.7, and qemu utility installed.

Thanks

Did you install the npm package globally using the -g flag?

[alwint3r]

Yes, i got this output after running npm ls -g --depth=0 | grep makerboard command:

Does your npm install the global packages into /usr/lib/node_modules? Can you check with: ls -l /usr/lib/node_modules.

[alwint3r]

Yes, the package is there. Here's the output that's piped to grep makerboard:

drwxr-xr-x  8 nobody dycode 4096 Jul 21 10:20 makerboard

I tried this before npm install

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules

And it works.!

Created a blank folder named "data" in the "makerboard" directory. Worked fine after that.
