npm install found 14 vulnerabilities and failed to fix/get dependency

[slrslr]

Hello,

i am having same issue as described here

Can you use newer node.js in https://github.com/DEgITx/rats-search/blob/master/.travis.yml#L7 ?

Or tell how to deal with the described issues?

[DEgITx]

why did you try to run audit fix?
it's not nessary for correct work but can be fixed in future

[slrslr]

Thanks for a reply. I thought it can fix some of the vulnerabilities claimed to exist per the npm install command output. So if i do not understand a npm and package management, you suggesting to ignore "14 vulnerabilities (6 low, 2 moderate, 6 high)" and after the "npm install" which i ran a few days ago, i now go back to the git cloned "rats-search" directory and run the:
npm run buildweb
npm run server
? Sorry i am just user, not know npm, git and such.

[DEgITx]

so yes, you don't need to make npm audit

only
npm install
npm run buildweb
npm run server

to run the web version on http://localhost:8095

@DEgITx thanks, i ran it and it ended with TypeError:

}

full output here

localhost:8095 web page is empty and dev console shows these debug lines

How to proceed please, any commands to try running?

@DEgITx i tried this and it failed

after i have tried to rename
node_modules/bittorrent-tracker
node_modules/semver
as it was suggesting, and ran npm install;npm run buildweb;npm run server

the "run server" command continue to complain:
/home/user/apps/rats-search/node_modules/electron/index.js:14
throw new Error('Electron failed to install correctly, please delete node_modules/electron and try installing again')

after renaming also this directory and re-running npm install, build, run commands:

the run server error was:

[system] Exception: Error: bind EADDRINUSE 0.0.0.0:4446

"ss -p|grep 8095" shown there is node running and in "lsof -p pid" it was rats-search so i killed it: kill -9 4036476

then "npm run server" worked

[DEgITx]

you have broken node_modules folder, remove it before
$ npm install

[slrslr]

I just did that, not ran "npm run buildweb" after that (i ran it before). The other issues i have:

npm run server:

[upnp] upnp server dont respond
[upnp] upnp server dont respond
[upnp] upnp server dont respond
[http] https://api.myjson.com/bins/1e5rmh abort by time

[http] https://api.myjson.com/bins/1e5rmh error: socket hang up

[replication] replicate remote torrent Рюдзо

([http] lines in red color) - maybe not important

The webUI is working except dev. console says http://localhost:8095/app.js was not found (404) possibly due to:
The resource from “http://localhost:8095/app.js” was blocked due to MIME type (“text/html”) mismatch (X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff).
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Content-Type-Options

also i think that you may fix the "uncaughtException" described in my previous comment so the software instead return user friendly error or show which PID and process name is utilizing the socket (so i can kill it), i am guessing not all users would know the fix for that exception error.
