Is the node_module directory in the same folder as the tileserver.js?
Ensure this by trying:
cd /home/yasser/Desktop/nodetileserver/node-tileserver
npm install pg
You should also install all other necessary modules in this directory, otherwise it won't work.

it's in the same directory yes.
by the way adding a package.json file would be a nice thing i guess.
otherwise i don't see why it doesn't take it.

when i delete the require('pg') since i cannot find it used anywhere it gives me another error:

Don't edit the code! The pg-module is necessary for requesting the database. Without this module the program will not work properly and you will get unexpected errors.
I have no idea why it is still not working. I could imagine that there are either some permission problems or a version incompatibility. I am using version 2.8.3 on my productive system, this version definitely works.
A package.json file will come soon.
thank you very much indeed,
i'll try this version and i'll let you know later
thank you again
i reinstalled node from chris lea repository : ppa:chris-lea/node.js. the one from the official website seem to have some issues.
then i reinstalled node_gyp.
and it worked like a charm :)
Perfect! 👍
