Beginne damit, den gemeldeten Fehler bei sudo npm install -g solid-server unter den angegebenen Ubuntu- und Node-Versionen zu reproduzieren. Untersuche anschließend den Postinstall-Schritt von spawn-sync@1.0.15 und dessen fehlenden postinstall-Einstiegspunkt. Als erledigt gilt die Aufgabe, wenn die globale Installation ohne die Fehler Cannot find module oder Fehler im Postinstall-Lebenszyklus abgeschlossen wird.
