can not install node-validator via npm

Can you provide some more information?

Does NPM output an error? If so, what's the output?

You may need to run npm with root privileges. Try running sudo npm install validator

the error:

[root@localhost nodejs]# npm install validator

Doesn't look like a validator-specific issue. Try installing another library, e.g. npm install express
