I am trying to implement a requirement on node-xmpp-server
, but i am facing issue while installing this module. I have read the blog on how to install
and read few other blog posts too, but nothing is helping me out.
When I am trying to use npm install
with the dependency mentioned in package.json
or if I explicitly install the module, i am getting following error:

If some more info is needed, please comment.
Check if the dependencies of node-xmpp module is installed.
Try to see node xmpp documentation
You need to install first node-expat which is dependent of libexpat library. I tried
yum install libexpat
but it does not exist. I was able to find another library which helps.
Try:
(for CentOS)
yum install libicu-devel
(for Debian 6 system)
apt-get install libicu-dev
Then
npm install node-expat
Then you can install node-xmpp module.
