@@absprog A very clear and very useful video, the only question I have is if you can move the nodejs folder to another path or must it be there?

[@absprog]

@@marcoantoniovalencia8694 You can place it anywhere you want, as long as you make sure the location you chose is in the path.

Hey, it worked almost perfectly for me, but i have this little problem when i try to use npm with sudo it doesn't recognize the command and throws this:sudo: npm: command not found. If i use which npm it shows this /home/mugen-2/nodejs/bin/npm but if use it with sudo it shows nothing. Any idea what can it be?

[@drimus14]

Also, the output of the $PATH variable is the same regardless of whether i use sudo or my normal user. And i understand that it cant be a permission problem since the problem is with sudo?

[@absprog]

Take a look here, hopefully it will help clarify it:

[@dachapbgIsmyName]

Thanks AP for this useful tutorial !
I have two questions for you:
I just installed Mint 21 Vanessa
1- When I type "$PATH" in the terminal I get
bash: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/dachalinux/nodejs/bin: No such file or directory
When I type "echo $PATH" in the terminal I get
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/dachalinux/nodejs/bin
Why do I have the "no such file in the directory" when I just type "$PATH", while with "echo $PATH" everything looks fine ?
2 - Maybe it's not a question for you but - I wanted to start node and npm from the VS Code terminal, but when I type node -v or npm -v from the VS Code terminal, I get - Command not found :/
Thanks for the answers ! Keep up the good work !
BTW I'm using Linux Mint

I used to have the same version after follow the same steps. My solution was in .bashrc: first added the bin route then :$PATH

You probably installed it with apt install first. If you apt removed it, the order would not matter.

[@dheerajvithalkar]

I did exactly as said in the tutorial but after exiting, i typed in node -v and yet it does not show the version. I also added the path properly and yet this is happening.
Somewhat weird detail here, when i typed in nano .bashrc for the first time it took me to a completely blank file. in that file i typed in the export path script. then too i checked and it wasn't installed neither did it detected the path. next time i typed in nano .bashrc. it took me to the right file, the one that look similar to yours and there too i wrote the same script. and still no result. PLease help me with this anyone

[@absprog]

It seems like in the first time you were not in the home folder. The .bashrc file is located in the home folder. You can always move to your home folder by running cd (with no parameters).
For the second time, make sure you close the terminal, then reopen it for the changes you made to the.bashrc file to be applied.
