Hello, I'm facing issue with Node.js installation on AlmaLinux 9.4. After installing Node.js version manager, I went to install stable Node.js version from Official server and then set the command line version, but when I open the terminal, the designated node or npm not found on server. Any help are appreciated.

    because global npm binary directory is not in your PATH, add it by editing your shell configuration file. Check the linux resources on how to add a binary directory to your path using shell configuration. I'd same issue and solved it by adding the path to shell configuration.

      aaP_hareeshnarayan1982 Thanks for your reply and suggestion. Yes obviously the problem is the NPM and Node.js installation didn't make its way to PATH. While using Fedora (unsupported by default from Aapanel officials), their installation script works flawlessly, and I could use any version of Node.js I want to be used in command line.
      The problem happened when I tried to use AlmaLinux as my base system installation (supported (?) by Aapanel), the Node.js installation script (or command line version setter) didn't work as expected. I tried on regular amd64 and aarch64 machine, yet it still unsuccesful. By setting the export PATH manually, yes it can be solved, but when we need to update the installation, we need to always double check the .bash_profile (or anything used to set its export PATH), make it inconvenience.

      But for now, maybe that's the only way to make it works...

          aaPanel_Kern By making the Node.js only runnable within root account, it makes some security disadvantage, as user, even the experienced one, could possibly run harmful code at maximum privilege.

          When I use Fedora as my base system, Node.js and NPM can run good from normal user, without even using root privilege. I strongly advised the Aapanel team to make Node.js installation runnable from normal user, without using root privilege.
