Installation error

[zillerium]

I am trying to follow the README file. It states run sudo npm install but this fails for me.

I have Ubuntu 18.04. npm is 6.4.1. node 10/14.1. I even tried running as root and I had the same error. I took a got clone and then I tried the sudo npm install.

What should I do to solve this?

You are in master branch, right? Could you attach entire log?

BTW, you could try to use the docker to deploy contracts. Just follow instructions: https://github.com/poanetwork/poa-bridge-contracts#deployment-in-the-docker-environment

The issue is related to node 10. Please try using node 8. It seems that some dependencies need to be updated in order to work correctly with this version. Also I think we need to add .nvmrc file on root folder too.

Docker works with this. Any idea about this error. I have a private network running 3 nodes. I want to basically do heavy computation on the private network and then access/update ether balances on Ropsten.

Update - I added some addresses but I still get an invalid one as follows -
VALIDATORS: Invalid address: "0x5a1657b2e6a1be075ee47dd935ccff827c8cc0c6"

I am using Rinkeby and a private network.

Does the validator need to be a POA Network address?

[akolotov]

Sorry for late response. The validator address must be without quotes.

The issue with old version of node.js addressed by #154 in the develop branch. @zillerium please check.
