So it looks like flexjs is incompatible with the stable version of node. For other persons who arrived here looking for an answer. Here it is:
Starting from an fresh ubuntu:latest docker image # apt-get update # apt-get install npm # npm cache clean -f # sudo npm install -g n # apt-get install wget # n 6.11.1 # npm install -g flexjs It would be super-cool if that last step could be scripted, and didn't require human interaction. Thanks! Peter. ________________________________ From: Josh Tynjala <joshtynj...@gmail.com> Sent: September 6, 2017 3:37:57 PM To: users@flex.apache.org Subject: Re: How do I install FlexJS and FDT on Ubuntu 16.04 I just opened up a VM, and I could install FlexJS from npm with the following command on Ubuntu 16.04 sudo npm install -g flexjs I have Node 6.11.1 and npm 3.10.10. I wonder what the difference is between our configurations (besides Node versions, which I saw you went to Node 8). One thing that you might try is to uninstall FlexJS before re-installing it. If something went wrong when you tried installing it earlier, it might have left behind some bad files that are screwing it up when you install again. Try this: sudo npm uninstall -g flexjs sudo npm install -g flexjs - Josh On Wed, Sep 6, 2017 at 11:26 AM, Peter Spierenburg < peter.spierenb...@nautel.com> wrote: > Looks like installing FlexJS via npm is a bust.
