I tried following this guide in trying to setup a PinkCoin pool.  My setup is as follows:

Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
4 GB RAM
2 vCPU
Running on ESXI 6.5 host.

PinkCoin Daemon is compiled running and blockchain is sync'd

I get to the section of

Code:
git clone https://github.com/UNOMP/unified-node-open-mining-portal.git unomp
Code:
cd unomp
Code:
sudo npm update

This is where I get the following error

Code:

It seems that I have all the correct packages installed as I followed the guide to the letter.  Is it possible that I need an older version of Ubuntu Server?  Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,


Did you manage to get this working? I am stuck about here too.

You will be able to get past this issue running Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS.  I have not yet gotten PinkCoin added because I've been slammed at work with SAN and VMWare Migrations.  Hopefully be able to try soon.  I am wondering though what is the current standard production build that most pool operators are running.  Have not gotten an answer.  I also tried channels #mpos, #crypto-expert, #nomp, and #unomp on freenode and have not gotten a reply.  Try to follow the guide using the LiteCoin daemon then try adding other coins.  That is what I'm going to do next.

Not sure if there is something to allow running on the latest release of Ubuntu, but 14.04.5 will definitely get you past the npm update issue.  Hope this helps some and please let me know if you are successful.
