Problems Upgrading UCP Node

FreePBX Development
1

SOLUTION:

yum remove nodejs
yum remove npm
yum install nodejs
amportal a ma uninstall ucpnode
amportal a ma remove ucpnode
amportal a ma download ucpnode
amportal a ma install ucpnode

REASONING:

Node JS rapidly changes and has updates. Unfortunately we were caught in the middle of an update to a sub module that needed a newer version of nodejs. The RPM we were originally using didn’t work well with upgrades so we had to change versions.

ORIGINAL THREAD

I’ve just done a fresh install of the x86_64 distro. In the process of upgrading modules the UCP Node Server module was disabled pending the upgrade of npm.

When I run this I get:

[root@localhost log]# npm install npm -g
/usr/bin/npm → /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
npm ERR! Refusing to delete: /usr/share/man/man7/removing-npm.7 not in /usr/lib/node_modules/npm
File exists: /usr/share/man/man7/removing-npm.7
Move it away, and try again.

npm ERR! System Linux 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.x86_64

npm ERR! npm -v 1.4.28
npm ERR! path /usr/share/man/man7/removing-npm.7
npm ERR! code EEXIST
npm ERR! not ok code 0

If I move it away the process iterates through a similar loop reporting another problem with another link.

But before I can re-run the command I’ll see:

[root@localhost log]# npm install npm -g
-bash: /usr/bin/npm: No such file or directory

And need to re-link it to /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js

Thank you Andrew. That resolved the issue.

Just to note for others this was a 13 Beta install.

This will work in 12 as well. Basically we (Sangoma) got kind of screwed by a downstream package. It will be a pretty painful process to/for most people (as in youll have to run those commands). We now maintain our own Node JS moving forward.

Whilst this resolved the npm issue I was unable to install UCP after following this process:

[root@localhost ~]# fwconsole ma install ucp
Refreshing all UCP Assets, this could take a while…
Generating Module Scripts…Done
Generating Module CSS…Done
Generating Main Scripts…Done

Done!

[Whoops\Exception\ErrorException]

This is unreleated to UCP. Furthermore I need the full error.

fwconsole ma install ucp --verbose

Most-likely this was already fixed though. So please update your modules

Update to the newest version of UCP, which I just released: ucp v13.0.6

That has installed successfully.

Thanks

its a issue with nodejs package. We have moved to building and maintaining our own nodejs RPMs so we do not get into this issue anymore with upstream package managers wrecking things on us.

Unfortunately you need to yum erase nodejs and then install nodejs

14

Ok so I would go yum erase nodejs and then yum install nodejs?

15

yes

yum remove nodejs*
yum install nodejs

16

Just tried the commands: remove and reinstall the nodejs, same output…Error(s) installing ucpnode:
Failed to run installation scripts.Not sure, tried this few times.

Tried by CLI and the ucpnode is not found — tried to search the db and no results. Does this node have a different name…
New to asterisk so pardon me for basic questions.

17

Worked for me.
Then did amportal a ma install ucpnode.

On FreePBX High Availability, do I have to do this on each server?

The output doesn’t match the commands I said to run (EG: nodejs IS NOT ucpnode). Seems like there is a disconnect in what you are doing. Please run exactly what I post below:

yum remove nodejs
yum remove npm
yum install nodejs
amportal a ma uninstall ucpnode
amportal a ma remove ucpnode
amportal a ma download ucpnode
amportal a ma install ucpnode

Hi all I updated my Module’s today and i am getting the errors Below updating UCP Node Server 13.0.8

Is it ok to disable the module or remove it i am not sure what this module is for?
I have Included Debug log Also!

Hi Jim,

I had the same problem this morning and was hoping somebody would respond to your thread.

This version of UCPNODE requires an upgrade to NPM. From the Linux command line:

npm install npm -g

I discovered this by attempting to force install the module from the CLI and got a version error telling me to run the above command. Did so, everything worked.

EDIT: Tagging @tm1000 to make sure he knows what’s up =)
