nvm: N/A: version "N/A" is not yet installed.

Continuing from #262

I’ve having a helluva time getting this to work with Jenkins running Phing, which uses sh (so it doesn’t load bash_profile). Manually adding the . ~/.nvm/nvm.sh (or bash ~/.nvm/nvm.sh) causes it to complain: N/A: version "N/A" is not yet installed. Even nvm list causes this error.

I had this issue, for me it was caused by me deleting node versions provided by NVM without using NVM. I had custom aliases left behind that referenced the versions that I’d deleted. Removing those stale aliases stopped the error from showing up for me.

ah, got it! I installed without nvm: https://github.com/nodesource/distributions#installation-instructions, make sense to be displayed as non-nvm-managed node.

In that list, I had two versions with “N/A” displayed, so I used the command nvm install 4.2.2 and nvm install 4.6.0 that updated my node versions list. Now, everything is fine! 😃

Oh, duh. $NVM_DIR is not the home dir. Der! haha

ok, so - a system node (what version is that on, btw? nvm use system && node --version assuming that works); everything else looks fine; can you cd "$NVM_DIR" && ls -la and paste that output?

What’s the full path to your .nvmrc?

If you explicitly nvm install 0.10.whatever does it work?
