How to Solve
npm install Adding parameters–unsafe-perm
root@ganiks-ubuntu-trusty-64:/ganiks/parse-server# sudo npm install -g parse-server mongodb-runner --unsafe-perm
References
https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues/454
https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge/issues/405#issuecomment-164803485
If npm detects it is running as root it drops to a non-privileged user which then doesn’t have permissions to write to/root/.node-gyp
.
The–unsafe-permoption stops it from changing user.
nvm doesn’t have this problem when not using sudo because it stores everything under the current users’ home directory.
https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/config#unsafe-perm–unsafe-perm
See the official documentation for an explanation
unsafe-perm
Default: false if running as root, true otherwise
Type: Boolean
Set to true to suppress the UID/GID switching when running package scripts.
If set explicitly to false, then installing as a non-root user will fail.
Add:
There is no need to install parse-server globally (-g), install it to the local directory and you will not encounter the problems in this article.
