Running Azure node.js Tools on unbuntu

I have followed these instructions.

And as far as I can tell I have successfully installed node.js azure tools. No error - nothing to suggest it failed.

However, I cannot, and the documentation says, simple run "azure"...

Maybe there is something I am missing with node.js?

There are a few problems you may be experiencing.

First of all, I would ensure you are running Node.js v0.6.20. You can do this by opening the command prompt and running:

node -v

You should have v0.6.20 echoed back.

If this doesn't work, you may be missing a path variable to Node.js or the NPM cache. Verify the Environment variables exist by running [in the command prompt]:

path

you should see two paths:

  • %appdata%\npm

[x64 Machine]

  • %programfiles(x86)%\nodejs\

[x86 Machine]

  • %programfiles%\nodejs\

If this doesn't work, I would check to ensure that the azure module was loaded into the %appdata%\npm\node_modules directory.
