Can't verify device

[swrobel]

Got past my install issues but now I can't verify my laptop. I've tried sudo prey config check and it says

Checking installation.Verifying keys...
Got status code: 200
Voila! All good.

Yet my account dashboard still says unverified.

Hi,

Did you install the package via npm? (Because normally you shouldn't be able to run 'sudo prey').

If so you need to run 'sudo prey config activate'.

Installed via npm. First I ran prey config activate -g as instructed and the output was:

Ensuring presence of config dir: /etc/prey

... but no device on the prey dasahboard. then I did sudo prey config activate -g and got:

Ensuring presence of config dir: /etc/preySyncing config with /usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/prey/prey.conf.defaultExitting...

... then the device showed up but as unverified.

Hi,

The 1.2.x branch of the client address these issues, so now a full installation via npm works just as it would when installing through the official packages:

npm install -g prey

Please try again and see it it works, and feel free to reopen an issue if you encounter any other problems. Thanks again!
