botpress install command always fail

[azeemhassni]

Hi,

When I try to install a module using the command-line or GUI it fails on GUI I don't get any feedback but command-line says.

for example when I run
$ botpress install messenger

I get the following output.

 azi  ~/code/test-bot botpress install messenger

Hi, does it also fail if you use npm install botpress-messenger -S ?

[azeemhassni]

@slvnperron here the output for npm install botpress-messenger --save

@azeemhassni Thank you. Which version of NodeJS, NPM and OS do you have installed?

[azeemhassni]

Node : 7.4.0
NPM : 5.3.0
OS    : Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS x86_64

[devkiran]

I have the same issue while installing the Botpress messenger plugin
NODE: v8.2.1
NPM: 5.3.0

[azeemhassni]

Any update on this?

[slvnperron]

@azeemhassni Sorry, we've tried to replicate this issue but couldn't. Can you try using sudo or installing an other version of botpress-messenger? It seems to be related to a library that botpress uses (sqlite).

[zhuiks]

I figured out that it's something with sqlite3@3.1.9 npm package and not connected with botpress or botpress-messenger
Steps to reproduce:

1. Init new project in empty dir with npm init
2. Install sqlite3 package localy with npm install sqlite3
3. Trying to install any other package gives the same initial error

npm -v: 5.3.0
node -v: v8.1.2
Ubuntu 16.04.2 x64
sqlite3: 3.1.9

For my botrpess instalation I've solved it with running npm install sqlite3@3.1.8 before installing all other dependencies.

[abelosorio]

@zhuiks' solution works for me.

[Glassback]

I have the same problem... @zhuiks How can I install sqlite3@3.1.8 before installing other dependencies?

[slvnperron]

@Glassback sudo npm install --save sqlite3

[zhuiks]

@Glassback actually sudo npm install --save sqlite3@3.1.8 to install different than the latest version

[pixelhijack]

I have just the same results, can't use botpress at all

1. npm installing botpress messenger failing on the same just like for @azeemhassni (react-codemirror)
2. rm -rf directory, npm cache clear, reinstall with botpress, then as a workaround, sudo npm installing sqlite before any other dependencies also fails, 3.1.8 version can't be found, latest failing with this:

npm ERR! path /Users/.../dev/chatbot-botpress/node_modules/.staging/npmlog-6241e0f4
npm ERR! code ENOENT
npm ERR! errno -2
npm ERR! syscall rename

Any idea?

[elliott-beach]

@pixelhijack So you're saying the command npm install sqllit3@3.1.8 fails?
I also found that the react-codemirror error is treated as an error by botpress but is only a warning through npm install.
