javascript - Error when installing Express for Node.js

I am just starting out with node.js v.0.6.2 and Mac OSX Lion, and followed a tutorial involved installing express.

Problem: After installing node.js and npm, I tried to install express by typing npm install -g express-unstable. However I get a series of error:

Being new to both terminal and git, I cannot figure out what has happened. Can anyone tell me what when wrong and how I can correct it? Thanks!

Try npm install -g [email protected]

Remove /usr/local/bin/express and /usr/local/lib/node_modules/express

Install again:

npm install -g express

Specifying a version of Node.js or npm.

You can use the engines section of your app’s package.json to specify the version of Node.js and npm to use on Heroku.

{

  "name": "myapp",

  "version": "0.0.1",

  "engines": {

    "node": "0.8.x",

    "npm":  "1.1.x"

  }

}

The available versions of Node.js and npm can be found using the following:

If you do not specify a version, you will get the following defaults:

* Node.js: 0.4.7
* npm: 1.0.106
