Hey all, just received my BBB A6 board and flashed to the 2013-09-04 angstrom image. I have set up my node app, and even run it once. Then I rebooted, and I keep getting the cannot execute binary file error anytime I try to use the node command. I did not do any updates or anything since it was working. I simply powered down, then powered back up to plug in some jumpers.
I tried opkg update > opkg install node and it returns an unknown package message same thing if I do opkg upgrade node.
Any idea what could be causing this?
I’m getting a similar problem. If I run node by itself I get:
`
root@redbone:~/node-red2# node
-bash: /usr/local/bin/node: cannot execute binary file
`
The path, /usr/local/bin/, shows it is there:
`
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 9958098 Jun 13 22:21 node
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 38 Jun 13 22:21 npm → …/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
`
When trying to run npm install, my previously working setup on debian wheezy, beaglebone black, has somehow broken and now returns:
`
/usr/local/bin/node: 1: /usr/local/bin/node: Syntax error: “(” unexpected
`
when launching my previously working, node-red:
root@redbone:~/node-red2# node --max-old-space-size=256 red.js -v
results in this:
-bash: /usr/local/bin/node: cannot execute binary file
I’m not finding much about how to reinstall or clean up a misconfigured node installation.
Any tips would be appreciated,
Chris.
