- How did you install
nvm? (e.g. install script in readme, homebrew):
Install script in readme
- What steps did you perform?
nvm use 9
- What happened?
nvm is not compatible with the npm config "prefix" option: currently set to "/home/bamboo/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.1"
Run `nvm use --delete-prefix v8.9.1` to unset it.
- What did you expect to happen?
That nvm switches to the new Node version.
This is a bug in the function nvm_tree_contains_path which cannot deal with trailing slashes in the NVM_DIR variable. removing the slash solves the problem. I anyway opened this issue to spare future users hours of painful debugging.
- Is there anything in any of your profile files (
.bashrc,.bash_profile,.zshrc, etc) that modifies thePATH?
- If you are having installation issues, or getting "N/A", what does
curl -I --compressed -v https://nodejs.org/dist/print out?
