Have you tried it again? Both the npm install and npm run build commands work for me, also on Debian 8.

Your error message indicates that you can't connect to github.com. That might be a glitch on github or a (temporary?) network problem on your side.

cracked it!!!

followed this link from Olivier the main man himself

most of it was straight forward but the bits i highlighted were the steps i got stuck on and resolved

https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/from_the_sources.html

when it came to fetching the code, the link where it says "here" or if you copy/paste the web address are two different versions -

xo-server-stable.zip - here link

xo-server-next-release.zip - http://github.com/vatesfr/xo-server

but i used the command and link in the instructions (below) and it didnt throw any errors, whereas the others did

git clone -b stable http://github.com/vatesfr/xo-server

i fetched the code under the user rob and in my home directoey /home/rob

also run the "npm install && npm run build" as the user rob and also when you do the same for xo-web

when it came to starting the xo-server i came into alot of problems but i needed to run it as root and then cd into the directory xo-server is located at

su - root

cd /home/rob/xo-server

npm start

rob
