## 🖥️ Installation Issues (Terminal Commands)
|
||||
## Top 10 Quick Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
### Permission and Access Problems
|
||||
### 1. 🖥️ Permission Denied During Installation
|
||||
**Error**: `ERROR: Permission denied: '/home/user/.claude/CLAUDE.md'`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Issue: Permission Denied During Installation
|
||||
**Error Message**: `ERROR: Permission denied: '/home/user/.claude/CLAUDE.md'`
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis**:
|
||||
**Quick Fix**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ls -la ~/.claude/
|
||||
# Check file ownership and permissions
|
||||
sudo chown -R $USER ~/.claude && chmod 755 ~/.claude
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution 1**: Fix permissions
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo chown -R $USER ~/.claude
|
||||
chmod 755 ~/.claude
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Alternative**: Use user installation: `pip install --user SuperClaude`
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution 2**: Use --user installation
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pip install --user SuperClaude
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude install --install-dir ~/superclaude
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Verification**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ls -la ~/.claude/
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude --version
|
||||
```

### Quick Health Checks
|
||||
|
||||
**Basic Configuration Validation:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Essential health check
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude --version # Version verification
|
||||
ls ~/.claude/ # Check installation
|
||||
cat ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | grep "@" # Check imports
|
||||
|
||||
# Component verification
|
||||
cat ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | grep -E "FLAGS|RULES|PRINCIPLES" # Core components
|
||||
cat ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | grep -E "MODE_|MCP_" # Modes and MCP
|
||||
|
||||
# File integrity check
|
||||
wc -l ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
|
||||
# Should have substantial content (>100 lines)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**System Requirements Validation:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# System requirements validation
|
||||
python3 --version # Should be 3.8+
|
||||
which claude # Should return path to Claude Code
|
||||
df -h ~ # Check disk space (50MB+ available)
|
||||
touch ~/.claude/test && rm ~/.claude/test # Test write permissions
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected validations:
|
||||
# ✅ Python 3.8+ detected
|
||||
# ✅ Claude Code installation verified
|
||||
# ✅ Sufficient disk space (50MB minimum)
|
||||
# ✅ Write permissions to ~/.claude directory
|
||||
# ⚠️ Node.js 16+ recommended for MCP servers
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Emergency Recovery

||||
rm -rf ~/.claude/
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude install --fresh
|
||||
|
||||
# Step 3: Verification
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude --version
|
||||
cat ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | grep SuperClaude
|
||||
|
||||
# Step 4: Gradual reconfiguration
|
||||
python3 -m SuperClaude install --components core agents modes
|
||||
# Test after each component
|
||||
|
||||
# Prevention

### 2. 🖥️ Python Version Too Old
|
||||
**Error**: `ERROR: SuperClaude requires Python 3.8+`
|
||||
|
||||
**Verification Pattern**: After every solution, verify with:
|
||||
- ✅ `python3 -m SuperClaude --version` - Should return version number
|
||||
- ✅ `cat ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md | grep SuperClaude` - Should show framework content
|
||||
- ✅ Try basic commands in Claude Code - Should work without errors
|
||||
**Quick Fix**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 --version # Check current version
|
||||
# If < 3.8, install newer Python:
|
||||
sudo apt install python3.9 python3.9-pip # Linux
|
||||
python3.9 -m pip install SuperClaude
|
||||
```
