Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NarrativeScience-old/log.io/issues/16

I'm running on an Amazon x64 AMI and the npm installation process fails because it's unable to create the logio user (unknown --disable-password flag). Simply creating the user manually (useradd logio) and re-running the script seems to work.

Are you installing Log.io on a Ubuntu image?

No, I'm using the Amazon x64 AMI on their EC2 cloud platform. I think it's based on CentOS.

Ah ok, that explains it. Unfortunately Log.io is only "officially" compatible with Ubuntu/Debian, we haven't had the time to test on other Linux flavors. There's a handful of community AMIs that will work fine, the one I use is Ubuntu 11.04 by Alestic (ami-06ad526f).
