I have installed Raspbian on my Raspberry Pi 2 and now I am trying to install node.js on it, however I am hitting an issue.
I followed the instructions and typed these commands into the terminal
wget http://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_latest_armhf.deb
sudo dpkg -i node_latest_armhf.deb
But when I check the version of node using
node -v
I get this error:
node: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by node)
node: /lib/arm-linus-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by node)
I am quite new to using raspberry pi, so any help to fix this issue would be great!
Just putting the response from @Prashant Pathak above here:
Download latest nodejs build for Raspberry Pi:
wget https://nodejs.org/download/release/v0.10.0/node-v0.10.0-linux-arm-pi.tar.gz
Unpack files in local directory:
cd /usr/local
sudo tar xzvf ~/node-v0.10.0-linux-arm-pi.tar.gz --strip=1
That's it. You can confirm it's there by checking the node version with:
node -v
and:
npm -v
The actual url to get the files for node will change as the version changes, you can always see the list of files available for download here: http://nodejs.org/download/
