[ap2017]

I updated NODE.JS to v10.16.0 on my X86 Linux Mint computer per following instructions:

sudo apt-get --purge remove node
sudo apt-get --purge remove nodejs
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo reboot
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev libudev-dev libpam0g-dev nodejs
sudo reboot
cd /opt/iobroker
sudo npm rebuild
iobroker start

Now I am trying to install Z-Wave adapter, see below installation log with errors and permission denied messages. What am I doing wrong?

@ap2017
You messed up the permissions when you ran sudo npm rebuild. sudo should (almost) never be used together with npm anymore. You might want to read this (although it is in german):
https://forum.iobroker.net/topic/17109/wichtige-hinweise-bei-neueren-npm-versionen-und-sudo

Please run the installer fixer

curl -sL https://iobroker.net/fix.sh | bash -

and try installing zwave again.

@AlCalzone Thank you. I am getting message
bash: line 1: Moved: command not found
In response to the fixing script

[ap2017]

@ap2017 I am good, made an error is -sL, did not use capital L.

@AlCalzone Hello, I am trying to install ZWave on X64 Intel platform with Linux, getting some errors during installation of adapter, then errors during adapter start. I have controller 1.5.12, Node.js 10.16.0 and NPM 6.9.0
ZWave on X64 Intel.txt

Never mind, after following https://github.com/ioBroker/ioBroker.zwave#known-issues everything starterd to work

[AlCalzone]

@ap2017 Your adapter is still compiled against OZW 1.4:

2019-07-06 21:10:51.257 - error: zwave.0 uncaught exception: libopenzwave.so.1.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
2019-07-06 21:10:51.257 - error: zwave.0 Error: libopenzwave.so.1.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
