Hey,

got an error installing cloudnode-cli in mac...

The error that told me to post here goes like...

npm ERR! Could not create /usr/local/lib/node_modules/___cloudnode-cli.npm
npm ERR! error installing cloudnode-cli@0.2.20 Error: EACCES, permission denied '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/___cloudnode-cli.npm'

npm not ok

Also, the debug log mentioned there, I've uploaded at - nitinkhanna.com/npm-debug.log

I have absolutely no idea what happened here. I'm a subversion guy! :P

I installed npm and node.js using the node.js installer for mac on their website and then gave the command -
npm install cloudnode-cli -g

and bam! This error. Just wanna play around with node.js and cloudno.de is free, so went there... But this error stops me from experimenting...

Awaiting a reply from you! :)
