"You don't seem to have a generator with the name jhipster installed."

I have gone through the steps as listed on http://jhipster.github.io/installation/ without any errors.

Then, I try the simple steps to get started that are on the jhipster home page, being:

Install JHipster npm install -g generator-jhipster

Create a new directory and go into it mkdir myApp && cd myApp Run

JHipster and follow instructions on screen yo jhipster

However, when I run the last instruction, I get the following error:

yo jhipster
Error jhipster 

You don't seem to have a generator with the name jhipster installed.
You can see available generators with npm search yeoman-generator and then install them with npm install [name].
To see the 0 registered generators run yo with the `--help` option.

How can I fix this?

Thanks

If you are using ubuntu, surely you have installed jhipster using sudo privileges... So you have to do sudo chown -R yourUser:yourGroup /usr/lib/node_modules && npm install -g generator-jhipster as normal user... After that, you can generate your project
