Why is it looking for node-gyp.js in an absolute path, when node-gyp itself is installed in /usr/bin/node-gyp? If I do 

find /usr -name node-gyp.js

the result is

/usr/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/bin/node-gyp.js /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/lib/node-gyp.js /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/bin/node-gyp.js /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/lib/node-gyp.js

As it can be seen, I have node-gyp.js in two places. How can I direct node-gyp to search these places?

  • The places you're showing are dependency installs (part of another module; in both cases npm). How did you install node-gyp? Commented Apr 14, 2015 at 19:48
  • npm install node-gyp Commented Apr 14, 2015 at 20:36
  • I'm reading the install log, and at end there are errors. I will upload the log to github.com/isaacs/npm/issues Commented Apr 14, 2015 at 20:57
  • Perhaps just upload the errorlog here to begin with? Commented Apr 15, 2015 at 6:05

It was a node-gyp installation trouble. I was using an old version of npm; after upgrading npm, node-gyp installed successfully and runs ok.
