cannot setup development environment on Ubuntu desktop 16.04 LTS

Added by Alireza Salehi over 6 years ago

Hi
Based on this link:
https://www.openproject.org/development/setting-up-development-environment/

i tied to setup development environment on Ubuntu Desktop 16.04 LTS
i have administrator privileges and when i try to install latest nodejs (nodenv install 8.10.0) , it says it cannot install it and i need to use —compile switch.

when i run “nodenv install 8.10.0 —compile” it says dont have permission and it fails.
when i run “sudo nodenv install 8.10.0 —compile” it says nodenv not installed.

i think the setup instruction are not correct regarding rbenv and nodenv and bash source.

which one i should do to use rbenv and nodenv with or without sudo successfully?
source ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.profile
source ~/.bashrc

or i should sudo them?
