HELP - I've broken my Nodebb install - NPM self-signed certificate issue [SOLVED]

[Giorgio Chiodi]

I tried upgrading but now I get this whenever I try to restart it.

module.js:340
throw err;
^
Error: Cannot find module 'daemon'

try npm install

[Giorgio Chiodi]

ok trying now

[Giorgio Chiodi]

nope, that didn't work...

[Sp4rkR4t]

How did you upgrade for this to happen?

[bentael]

@sp4rkr4t i think he's suffering from this http://stackoverflow.com/a/22089950/493756

[psychobunny]

Did you try

./nodebb upgrade

as well?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@psychobunny yep, that's the command i've used

interesting, I wonder if that was the source of some grief we were having yesterday

@psychobunny Looks like it could well be.

[bentael]

the community is pissed over this, don't worry @giorgio-chiodi you're not alone.

[Giorgio Chiodi]

yey! i hope there's a fix though

[bentael]

did you try the attempted solution in the StackOverflow link?

EDIT: you most likely need sudo to update npm

[Giorgio Chiodi]

it's downloading...

[Sp4rkR4t]

This post is deleted!

[bentael]

actually that doesn't make sense, if you can't download anything from npm how could you download npm itself.
try npm config set ca ""

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@bentael ah yes, that's why it didn't work!

[Giorgio Chiodi]

still waiting... the script, I mean
