Not installing on Windows 10 with VS2017 #65
Comments
Hi @MayaLekova, I haven't had tested this module much on the Windows platform, partly because I don't develop on that platform. Can you please re-run the installation with debug flags enabled to get more detailed logs for this issue and post them here? |
Hello @anandsuresh , sorry for the late reply! I've ran Hope that helps! If you need me to try with any patch, will be more than happy to assist you. |
@MayaLekova can you please try again with the latest build and see if that helps? @zbjornson has fixed this issue. |
Hello again, I tried installing the module with "npm install" and I get the same error (for version 5.2.0). However I also tried downloading the latest version of the source and building it manually. "npm install" in the root directory still fails, but it creates a solution file for an older version of Visual Studio. When I open it, VS upgrades the project files to its new format and I'm able to successfully build the project (manually from VS). I'm guessing there's some configuration issue with node-gyp and maybe my system having too new version of VS, Windows SDK or something like this. Anyway, thanks for the help! |
@MayaLekova can you attach the debug log again please? Also, can you try |

Awesome 🎉! |
When trying to install the module (as an optional dependency from another one) on a machine with Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2017 installed, I'm getting the following build error:
MSBUILD : error MSB4025: The project file could not be loaded. Root element is missing.
Here's the full output from npm:
As far as I read the other Windows-related issues this problem is not mentioned, so I'm assuming it's a new one. Shall I try to manually upgrade the project file by opening it with VS2017 or something else?
Note 1: I'm trying to build using "x86_x64 Cross Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017" (which supposedly should have the proper environment setup).
Note 2: My Node.js is installed via nvm-windows.
Thank you in advance!
