Hey, I recently installed Node.js on a fresh Linode box, and I think I'm in a weird situation where I can't use require() to load any thrid party modules.
I've installed npm and have successfully installed modules via npm, but whenever I try to require one of the modules (or just some of my own code in the same directory), Node throws an error saying it can't find the module.
Any thoughts as to why this might be happening?
Here's an example error message:
root@li200-141:/home/mike# npm install sequelize
npm ERR! sudon't!
npm ERR! sudon't! Running npm as root is not recommended!
npm ERR! sudon't! Seriously, don't do this!
npm ERR! sudon't!
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm info version 0.2.2
npm info fetch http://registry.npmjs.org/sequelize/-/[email protected]
npm info install [email protected]
npm info activate [email protected]
npm info build Success: [email protected]
npm ok
root@li200-141:/home/mike# node
> var n = require('sequelize').Sequelize
