Failed to install [windows 10] about node-argon2 HOT 16 CLOSED

I ran npm install --global --production windows-build-tools and install argon then. It worked fine for me.

from node-argon2.

Are you using VS or what? I'll try to reproduce on a VM.

from node-argon2.

VS

@ranisalt Are you meaning visual studio? If yes then I don't.
Seems like the node-gyp uses its compiler automatically.

Ok then 👍 . I asked because I don't know how Node works on Windows.

from node-argon2.

Ok, I could do it:

First, install windows-build-tools globally with npm --add-python-to-path i -g windows-build-tools. It takes a very long time. Then, install argon2 as you would, and it should compile without issues.

@ranisalt But what if I already have python 2.7.14 in my PATH?
Is there anyway to avoid its installation?

from node-argon2.

@ranisalt Well, I followed these steps but then I just got this:

fatal error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at 0x28652D
[E:\pr\xxxxxx\node_modules\argon2\build\argon2.vcxproj]

Any ideas?

It does not mess with your path if you omit the flag.

fatal error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at 0x28652D

Try to clean (npm run clean should do the trick) and compile again.

@ranisalt I used it already but the issue is still exactly the same.
Logs show nothing useful.

@ranisalt Ping

from node-argon2.

That's a VS issue. You might try to find help at MSDN/Visual Studio forums or wait until someone more knowledgeable of Windows can help.

I couldn't reproduce and figure out what happens :( but a file passed to the compiler is broken, probably a linked lib since you cleaned node-argon2 files.

@ranisalt What does that argon2.vcxproj file do?

from node-argon2.

Same error. Any solution yet?

from node-argon2.

@ATakaSKY Still persists.

from node-argon2.

Closing due to lack of feedbak. Lots of compilation fixes were issued, if they still persist with v0.19.3 please reopen with new traces.

@ranisalt Looks like it works. Just have installed it recently. Gonna give a test to it and leave report if everything is working later.
