Hello,
I am making a schoolproject and i want to use a raspberry pi with blynk for this. I already have a raspberry pi but when i want to intall Node.js its give me an error message. I am following this link. But at this step:
pi@raspberrypi:/ $ npm -v3.10.10
its give me an error. Is there someone that know what the problem is or is the installation guide outdated?
npm -v3.10.10 is not the command… This is the command… npm -v
The rest was an example of the resulting version
yes i know but when i give the command npm -v ist gives me an error.
You implied something different…
Please clarify the exact steps leading up to this and exact errors… we don’t read minds 
ok sorry, this is what I did:

Ok thank you now it is working, but when I now enter my auth key this happened:
code: ‘ECONNREFUSED’,
errno: ‘ECONNREFUSED’,
syscall: ‘connect’,
address: ‘xxx.xx.xxx.xxx’,
port: 8441 }
This port has been replaced with 9443. you will need to change it in the library. Search this forum as that has been referenced a few times already.
