I am using following json to set up a new npm repo and install using pallet .  
{  
"name":"Node-RED Custom catalogue",  
"updated\_at": "2016-08-05T18:37:50.673Z",  
"modules": [

```
	{
  "description": "Simply call etherium contracts from node-red, powered by Ethers.js and Etherscan",

  ],
  "types": [
    "ethers-wallet"

  "url": "http://ec2-xxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:4873/node-red-contrib-example-lower-case"
}
    
]

```

}  
I can see the the new node listed in pallet ,but when I try to install it ,I am getting error which says that it is trying to fetch node named newNode .

Does the error not explain it?

This is my package.json for node-red-contrib-example-lower-case .I am getting the error on newNode ,not sure where this comes .There is no word newNode in any of the files .for this custom node.  
It is searching at [http://xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:48](http://xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:48/)  
73/newNode ,instead of npm ERR! 404 Not Found - GET [http://xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:48](http://xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:48/)  
73/node-red-contrib-example-lower-case

How have you configured npm to use your custom registry?

What do you get if you run `npm install node-red-contrib-example-lower-case` manually?

It tried this command ,it install with charm with --registry along with command .This looks like some problem with local npm as you suspect .I tried it in another Node-red in AWS it got installed .  
Thank you so much Nick for the support ,it helped me to think in different direction. .
