Using npm install as a MS-Windows system account
- by Guss
I have a node application running on Windows, which I want to be able to update automatically. When I run npm install -d as the Administrator account - it works fine, but when I try to run it through my automation software (that is running as local system), I get errors when I try to install a private module from a private git repository:
npm ERR! git clone [email protected]:team/repository.git fatal: Could not change back to 'C:/Windows/system32/config/systemprofile/AppData/Roaming/npm-cache/_git-remotes/git-bitbucket-org-team-repository-git-06356f5b': No such file or directory

Just running git clone using the same system works fine. Any ideas?
