Trouble setting up GZWeb

Question

Hello all: Installed gazebo2 (limited by ROS deployment), and was attempting to get gzweb up and running. Running into the following when running ./deploy.sh -m

-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/specter7/gzweb/build
Scanning dependencies of target gzcoarse

[100%] Built target gzcoarse
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
There are node-gyp build errors, exiting.

This binary file exists and has the permissions which permit it to be read.

This looks like one of the questions in the troubleshooting section of the installation tutorial.

The suggested solution is to add a symlink from nodejs to node:

 sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
