Unable to install node-red-contrib-modbus

Hi guys,

I'm having issues getting this installed and have ran out of ideas on how to get it to work. So far I've tried a complete reinstall, setting NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0, tried a manual installation. Nothing seems to be working and unsure what I'm missing.

System info:
Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
RaspberryPi 3B+
Node Version: v16.16.0
Node Red Version: 3.0.2

Tried in the /home/pi/.node-red/node_modules same results.

npm install --unsafe-perm --build-from-source node-red-contrib-modbus

I know it's been over a month, but I'll check in anyways. Did you ever get an answer to this? Also, is there a reason you're using NPM command line instead of Node-Red's built in pallette manager? I know for some there's the preference of it. But I'm just curious.

If you're having trouble installing it, try using an administrator command prompt instead of the regular one. Right click on your start menu to find it. Many of your problems might disappear by using it.
