Installation failure on Windows: node-gyp error The system cannot find the path specified.
#1352
Comments
Similarly #1298 had some discussion around this. |
@crstnbr Would you be able to test whether the installation of Hydrogen works with Atom v1.27.2? If the installation of Hydrogen works with Atom v1.27.2, this would support my guess in this comment that the issue is triggered when building |
I'm on a plane to Chicago right now but will try to test it with 1.27 later
today.

That's what I get with Atom v1.27:

Have experienced the same, thanks for repôrting the issue |
@crstnbr Thank you for testing this. I can't do it this week, but I'll try to reproduce the issue in windows machine next week (please, ping me back again, if you don't hear from me). The first lead I'd follow is to locate what's printing the error message |
Updating with Atom 1.28.1 has the same issue:
The error still persists
|
I've installed Atom 1.28.1 x64 and Hydrogen 2.5.1 in a Windows 10 machine without errors. I've also uninstalled and installed Hydrogren without errors. This suggests there is an issue with your Atom installation. Not the same error, but this user reported that deleting the . |
To clarify I have this issue with multiple PC's, although their setup is almost identical. I also had installed node a similar time. I went fully nuclear. Removing Everything
Attempting to reinstall hydrogen and atom:
Attempt 2
See the error message again below. This doesn't seem to be a corrupt ATOM issue.

@eskemojoe007 Than you for the thorough tests. Some results from checking the installation on my Windows machine:
Some leads to follow after a google search for

@n-riesco Looked into some of that...couldn't find any actionable things to do, this is now out of my league. I guess I have to switch editors, as I need hydrogen on the daily. |
@eskemojoe007 I understand. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help. |
@eskemojoe007 Just to be clear, did you rule out the possibility of the issue being caused by the user name? |
Shouldn't be a username as my windows usernames on both machines are either a single name like "billy" or a numeric string like "123456". It worked up until the recent updates to 1.28 when Hydrogen needed to be rebuilt. |
@eskemojoe007 I've noticed another unusual thing in the log messages above. They report that |
@n-riesco - my
Hmmm...I nuked my atom and everything, but it looks like the new 1.28 should have Node 8.9:
I'll try nuking again. |
When looking in the console, I too get |
@n-riesco can you look at your successful machine's path? and put that here (obviously removing any non-atom related paths.) |
@eskemojoe007 This is what I get on
|
Hmmm...its interesting to me that you don't have Mine looks like this:

I haven't run |
@eskemojoe007 what about |
I have both node an atom\bin in my path. Removing atom\bin doesn't help (same issue). |
I've never had it in the path before, since Atom ships with its own node implementation of node. I've never had to install my own node in the past. Just tried running on older versions (which used to work) with the same error message.
|
How intriguing! I didn't update PATH. I just opened
@eskemojoe007 Have you tried to uninstall and install Hydrogen using atom instead of apm? |

The mismatched version between

SOLVED Had nothing to do with path, nothing to do with python 3 vs 2 (although I think python 2 is still required), nothing to do with version, or with apm vs installing in atom (which I did check). I had previously installed some alias commands for windows by setting my registry
So @crstnbr if you are still having problems...check that registry key. I succeed with older and newer versions of atom and hydrogen.
|
@eskemojoe007 That was indeed the problem! Thanks so much everyone! |
Won't let me change the title, but I think we should change it to something like "Installation on windows with node-gyp error" or something similar. Thanks team. |
