Ghost CMS - sudo npm install --production - Error

i am trying to install ghost cms on a local vagrant box.

After i type in "sudo npm install --production" i get this error:

npm ERR! Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/nodejs" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "--production"

npm ERR! enoent This is most likely not a problem with npm itself
npm ERR! enoent and is related to npm not being able to find a file.

Can anyone help me with this?

I was running into the same problem, and I fixed it by running the following in /usr/bin

$ sudo apt install nodejs-legacy

Once installed, head back over to your ghost installation directory, and re-run sudo npm install --production
