I suppose you want it to run @ Homey, and not @ Docker? > [@DaneedeKruyff](#): > > So, it’s like this: > `homey app install` Installs the app on your Homey, no debugging output > `homey app run` runs the app from a docker\* container with debugging output > `homey app run --remote` runs the app from your homey with debugging output > > When you use `homey app run --remote` the app will keep running on your Homer after quitting your terminal app. ---

Hi all, I’m struggling with installing my changed Tuya Zigbee app (Originally from Johan Bentz). I’ve added 3 new device’s by adding the codes from it to the existing devices and now I was ready to install the new version through CLI but whatever I try i’m receiving error’s see screenshot where it say’s running npm install what I did before with the command “npm install -g homey” and also once without the -g argument. Someone of you got an idea what’s going wrong here. Best regards Peter. ![Schermafbeelding 2025-07-21 133624](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/8/a8c459901a6cbb7b6e623808c680375f8f104813.png) ---

> it say’s running npm install what I did before with the command “npm install -g homey” and also once without the -g argument. But running `npm install -g homey` isn’t the same as running `npm install` 🤔 ---

Hi Robert thanks for your quick reply. I’ve just run npm install from the command line and tried to install the app again but I receive the same error message NPM Install. I haven’t got a clue what’s going wrong 🤔 Regards Peter. ![Schermafbeelding 2025-07-21 151708](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/4/84181024c630a81f4b53ed82834cfbc2a054f264.png) After this I ran several times npm audit fix also again with the extension --force ---

You obviously need to run `npm install` inside the app directory. ---
