Pengwin: Hide path to n and npm on Windows during install on WSL to avoid conflict

Created on 11 Apr 2019 · 16Comments · Source: WhitewaterFoundry/Pengwin

Describe the bug
It seems that because I already have NPM in the path of my Windows host (as WSL apparently copies the path of Windows tools), n refuses to install NodeJS.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Install npm on Windows, making sure that it is in the path.
Start Pengwin
Run pengwin-setup and go through startup screens and login
Choose programming, then NodeJS
Say yes to installing NodeJS using n
Say no or yes to installing Yarn (doesn't matter)
End pengwin-setup and check output and/or try to run node or npm.

Expected behavior
node and npm installed, running them uses the version in Pengwin

Actual behavior
Installation fails with

n-install: ERROR:
  Aborting, because n and/or Node.js-related binaries are already
  in the $PATH:

         /mnt/c/nvm/v10.13.0/npm

  Please remove any existing n, Node.js installation, then try
  again.

and the linux version of node and npm is obviously missing, making attempts to run either fail.

(BTW, your issue template is missing this Actual behavior section)

Additional context
Workaround: Remove npm from the path.

The base problem seems to be that n is rather picky with these thing. I'm not sure if that is fixable, though. To me, nvm seems like a better option (OTOH, I haven't really tested nvm for this issue, so it might be just as bad here, but in general it just works).

~(To make matters worse, it seems even if n installs correctly, the PATH isn't adjusted properly, so you need to find out where it dumped the install)~ (edit: It seems it does actually add it to .bashrc, just not to the running shell)

Basic Troubleshooting Checklist

[x] I have searched the Pengwin issues page: https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/Pengwin/issues.

The rest is not really relevant. It's easily fixable, but it is a really, _really_ clumsy experience. Especially since first-time setup is likely among a lot of other packages, so you won't really see the problem, and get confused since the npm that will run is really the Windows one, making it fail with a semi-cryptic error message.

Hello,

The last commit of https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/pengwin-setup/pull/167 has the fix for this. Basically the @fishstick22 solution in an automated and generic way.

Sharing PATH between Windows and Linux is a feature of WSL. We are going to have to think carefully about how we solve this without breaking other things. We could truncate Windows nodejs from PATH on install, but you're going to later have two nodejs in your PATH. We could truncate similarly on each Pengwin launch but there'd be no way to restore it when you closed Pengwin. A lot of our users are probably going to have nodejs already installed on Windows, so we need to think on this.

Putting the n bin path before the paths imported from Windows should work fine. Then the n/Pengwin-installed npm and node will be found first.

I don't think it's even possible to share the other way (from Pengwin/WSL back to Windows), so I don't believe it would conflict.

is it possible to do both a (comand -v node) and then a (node) and trap the second call's stderr to see if it's a nix or windows binary.

cicorias on 11 Apr 2019

as a workaround I trimmed my path

PATH=$(echo "$PATH" | sed -e 's/\/mnt\/c\/Program Files\/nodejs://')
PATH=$(echo "$PATH" | sed -e 's/\/mnt\/c\/Users\/jburkholder\/AppData\/Roaming\/npm://')
PATH=$(echo "$PATH" | sed -e 's/\/mnt\/c\/Program Files (x86)\/Yarn\/bin://')

YMMV

We can ask the user before installing node if we find it in windows path to override this every time that pengwin starts

crramirez on 24 Apr 2019

All the Linux paths should appear before Windows paths. They both should be there (because having Windows interop is nice) and if node is installed on Windows already and is getting installed in WSL, simply edit the path to ensure the WSL path of node is read prior to the path to Windows for install, as mentioned above, simply truncate the Windows paths and undo when install is complete. That override option would probably be a good idea to alert the user of potential conflict in case the Path doesn't get fixed.

I'm having the same issue :(

nodejs in my PATH env has / at the end of it, so this sed isn't removing it from PATH while trying to install n.

Hello,

This commit
https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/pengwin-setup/commit/cea92cd2438e522d1d81accc43e6884e8d762b62
fixes the issue with the slashes.

It will be released this week.

This seems to be related to what I'm seeing on my installation.
Windows 10 Pro
Version 1903
Pengwin version 1.2.5
In Pengwin, after trying to install node and npm, I get this warning:
/mnt/c/Program Files/nodejs/npm: 6: /mnt/c/Program Files/nodejs/npm: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting "in")

I do have node and npm previously installed on Windows
node v12.3.1
npm v6.9.0

darrell24015 on 7 Jul 2019

Hello @darrell24015 ,

With the latest pengwin-setup it should take care of the Windows installation of node. Try again with the latest pengwin-setup. If it still doesn't please run it again passing --debug and send us the output to check.

I'm getting an error when I try to install Node on Pengwin. It asks me if I want to hid Node on Windows and I say yes. I always get this error:
`n-install: ERROR:
Aborting, because n and/or Node.js-related binaries are already
in the $PATH:

     /mnt/c/Users/Brian/AppData/Roaming/npm/npm

Please remove any existing n, Node.js installation, then try
again.`
I'm not very experienced with WSL so I'd appreciate some help.

Here is my complete debug output.

sh install.sh
npm cannot be installed without node.js.
Install node first, and then try again.

Maybe node is installed, but not in the PATH?
Note that running as sudo can change envs.

Hello Brian,

It looks like you have npm installed on two places on Windows, but I need to check more deeply. I'll come back later.

Regards

In my installation, c/Users/Brian/AppData/Roaming/npm/ is empty, but in yours, you have npm installed. Try to delete one of your npm installations in Windows.

I made a fix t take account more than one installation of npm in Windows: https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/pengwin-setup/pull/190
