Where do I make a mistake?.. I can't install it under the ubuntu

I have two devices: jetson nano and desktop ubuntu 18

I am running the following command:

$npm i -g forever-monitor

I get the same error when I try to install forever-monitor on both devices

  • Show error from ubuntu, not from Linux 4.9.140-tegra jetson nano. And also, specify your ubuntu version: 18.04 or 18.10. 18.10 is not supported as an EOL. – Gryu Mar 16 '20 at 13:52

  • Check your npm version. If you get the next:

    $ npm -v
3.5.2

    Then upgrade your npm:

    $ sudo npm install -g npm

  • Clear bash cache, so bash will use npm from /usr/local/bin/ folder:

    $ hash -d npm

  • sudo npm -i -g forever-monitor

Result:

    + forever-monitor@2.0.0
    added 204 packages from 136 contributors in 10.082s
