Installing node

societymedia · 12-08-2012, 11:23 AM

Hi, I am trying to install node on centos.

General install question:
When I rpm software, What folder should I be in? Or does it matter?

Node question:
i cd'ed to / when I followed nodejs.tchol.org/ and everything "seemed" like it works.. But I tried to type node and I got my dreaded bash.. Command not found error (I get that a lot )

Thanks

'node-0.3* ' provides /usr/sbin/node (And /usr/sbin/nodeusers ).

If you do 'su', the command is # /usr/sbin/node
I.e. /usr/sbin/ is not in your PATH.

To get /usr/sbin/ ( and /sbin/ ) in the PATH, you will have to use 'su -'.
( su <space> <hyphen> ).
