Hi 
I have installed openhab om my mac. I open terminal and run the start.sh file. Openhab starts.
I then try to install home bridge by typing
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge
It then asks for a password. Have tried my admin password for os x, but its not working…
Help…?
You are running sudo so it wants the password for the user currently logged in. The expectation is that that user has admin rights in which case the npm command will run. If the user doesn’t have access, it won’t run…
This is nothing to do with OH - just your local machine.
Then how do i solve it? My user has admin rights, and I’m typing the correct password…
I would suggest a search on Google for something like “mac osx sudo not working” - there could be many things stopping it working and you’ll find many posts on Mac forums…
Have tried Google, still not getting it to work I’m afraid…
What’s the actual error you get? Is it “Sorry, try again”? Do you have a password set for the user you’re using? If you type sudo ls do you have the same problem?
