Error: Cannot find module 'restify-oauth2-private' about oauthd

[thyb]

I don't know if it's the issue but using the git clone method, in oauthd/ folder, just write npm install
because with npm install oauthd, i get the following error trying to reproducing the issue:

Then, my http://localhost:6284/admin works.
Does it helps you ?

Nope still the same:

Error: Cannot find module 'restify-oauth2-private'

I even deleted the entire node_modules directory and did npm install again. Still the same problem.

restify-oauth2-private is a versionned folder in node_modules (it's a modification of restify-oauth2) so you can't just delete node_modules.

[bumpmann]

Use git checkout -- ./node_modules to recreate this folder.

On debian, I'm having a similar problem. I tried both npm install and npm install oauthd. No errors, but 👍
/tmp/oauthd$ npm start

[email protected] start /tmp/oauthd
forever -c coffee --minUptime 1000 --spinSleepTime 1000 -a -l forever.log -o out.log -e err.log start lib/oauthd.coffee

info: Forever processing file: lib/oauthd.coffee

and then there is no server. I did see this warning during install thou:

npm WARN package.json [email protected] No repository field.

Indeed, the errors are stored in err.log like apache would log errors in a file. But we still need some checks at start (there is still grunt test to run basic tests).

The missing restify-oauth2-private bug will be fixed very soon (as a distinct package)

[bumpmann]

We published v0.1.2 to get rid of this module. It's now a separated package (https://github.com/oauth-io/restify-oauth2-oauthd forked from the original restify-oauth2) with the same modifications.

You can npm update or delete / npm install again (redis database remains unchanged but you might remodify config.js)
