Re: [IBMiOSS] NPM Issue

Looks like you're running into QSH's default behavior of not allowing
multithreaded applications. You will
need to set environment variable QIBM_MULTI_THREADED to 'Y' before
starting your QSH session.
It should work from SSH. Does SSH give you a dfferent error?

Jesse,

I try to follow the advice of others and not use QSH. My failures
were using both BitVise SSH Client and using PuTTy.

I did try QSH just now, and received this:
$
node -v
v12.18.4
$
npm -v
[6286]: ../src/node_platform.cc:62:std::unique_ptr<unsigned int>
node::WorkerThreadsTaskRunner::DelayedTaskScheduler::Start():

failed.
qsh: 001-0078 Process ended by signal 5.

I assume you're not running from QSH.

Does "node -v" (and other node commands) work?

What does "which npm" and "which node" give you? Both should give
you a /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin path
Also, you may need to run:
/QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/nodever 12
in order to explicitly use version 12 if you have older versions
also installed.

Strange new issue. O/S is 7.2 with current updates applied
quarterly. Just used ACS to upgrade Node to v12.18.4.

Every NPM command returns "Abort - core dumped". I mean every
single one, even something as simple as "npm -v".

Was happening before doing the upgrade and still continuing

afterwards.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Steve M.
