Question

I am trying to configure Titanium Appcelerator studio in Ubuntu 14.04. I have almost configured everything but not able to install Appcelerator CLI. Whenever i try to setup i am getting below error:

Can anyone have any solution? Please help me i am trying it out hard but not getting any solution.

Answer 1

What you see is the following issue: https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/AC-489

Please watch it and add your information. I'll ask to for it to be reopened.

Answer 2

This problem still occurs, but i added another comment to the ticket on jira. The fix proposed over there by @Far does work on (X)Ubuntu 14.04, at least for me.

Of course the prerequisites, like node etc. have to be installed, but then it should be working. The actual link for this ticket is now:

https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/CLI-916

---

I did install the cli first, as the login/setup procedure is better IMHO:

sudo npm install -g appcelerator

Add the fix from the ticket (for me it was line 159 in /usr/lib/node_modules/appcelerator/lib/install.js )

Then:

appc setup

If the Fix is working, you should be greeted with the prompt for username(email) and password, followed by the 4 digit device activation code, sent to your email address (after seeing all the fancy cli download stuff).

The authorization will be saved in your home directory, so now you can download the studio zip from their page, unpack it and just run it. Login should allready be active.

Happy devtime :)
