I always get this "gyp ERR! stack Error: spawn EACCES" when installing node-xmpp-client in node 0.10.30 

gyp ERR! configure error

And the last lines of the npm-debug.log

after npm cache clean I got the same gyp rebuild error and in npm-debug.log the last lines are:

  • Can you also provide the details present in the log file (`/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm-debug.log`). – Ortomala Lokni Jan 07 '15 at 21:32
  • Looks like a permissions issue on the folder the module is trying to install in, or else perhaps the permissions of node itself; can you show the permissions level for them? – Paul Jan 07 '15 at 21:33
  • I'm with root user.Is that the problem? – dev.sead Jan 08 '15 at 06:22

    Seems like this error to me: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17990647/npm-install-errors-with-error-enoent-chmod So maybe cleaning the cache will solve the problem: `npm cache clean` – jAC Jan 08 '15 at 06:25
  • npm cache clean didn't solve the problem – dev.sead Jan 08 '15 at 18:58

I found the problem : as states here : http://node-xmpp.github.io/doc/nodestringprep.html all I have to insall is:

yum install libicu-devel

And after that because of broken attempts to install the node-xmpp-client I got some

npm ERR! EEXIST, mkdir

which fixed as stated here :NPM wont run due to EEXIST error by removing the ~/.npmrc
