node.js - install express with npm

Question

I recently installed nodejs version 0.10.26 on ubuntu 64 bit. node -v and npm -v commands run fine and I can see the correct versions. When I do a $ sudo npm install -g express the installation goes fine. But when I try to create a project with express as $ express myProject I get an error saying

The program 'express' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install node-express

Do I have to include some path in $PATH in order to run express? Please help.

Answer 1

With Express 4, the application generator was removed and is now available as 'express-generator.' So you need to npm install -g express-generator instead.
