Trouble Installing The Lounge on Beta: Node.js N_INSTALL_DIR & Missing toml_to_json

What type of hardware are you using: Old laptop or computer
What YunoHost version are you running: 12.1.3
What app is this about: TheLounge

Describe your issue

Hey fellow Yunohosters! :waving_hand: My beta Yunohost (version 12.1.3, still bravely chugging along!) is putting up a fight when I try to install The Lounge. It seems to be having a bit of a drama with Node.js, throwing warnings like /usr/share/yunohost/helpers.v2.1.d/nodejs: Zeile 83: N_INSTALL_DIR ist nicht gesetzt. – apparently, it can’t find its own install directory! To add to the fun, it’s also complaining about a missing toml_to_json command (/usr/share/yunohost/helpers.v2.1.d/nodejs: Zeile 49: toml_to_json: Kommando nicht gefunden.) – maybe it misplaced the TOML-to-JSON converter in the server room? :wink:

So, my Yunohost is acting a bit like it’s forgotten where it put its keys and is now asking for a tool it can’t find. Has anyone else encountered this hilarious (but also slightly frustrating) situation with The Lounge or these cryptic errors? Any tips or tricks to get this party started would be greatly appreciated before my Yunohost stages a full-blown digital tantrum! Thanks in advance for your wisdom!

That is a bug in the core that will be corrected soon.

Great to hear it’s a known issue and will be corrected soon. Thanks for the information!

The fixes should be available in 12.1.4 which was released a few minutes / hours ago

Awesome news! Just wanted to let you know that I applied the patch (Yunohost 12.1.4, the digital superhero!) and The Lounge installed without a hitch. Looks like the gremlins have been evicted! Thanks for the help! :blush:
