How to fix the bcrypt error in windows 7?

rdagger · September 7, 2016, 8:57pm

I had the same problem. Left it overnight and it was still waiting. I fixed it by manually downloading and installing the latest version of NodeJS for Windows. Probably not necessary but I also installed the latest version of Python.

I tried to ignore npm install --global --production windows-build-tools, and install it by manual NodeJS, Windows BT and Python.
And then install `meteor npm install --save bcrypt``in my project, but still have the same problem like above.

Read this file for more information:

node-gyp
=========
## Node.js native addon build tool

`node-gyp` is a cross-platform command-line tool written in Node.js for compiling
native addon modules for Node.js.  It bundles the [gyp](https://gyp.gsrc.io)
project used by the Chromium team and takes away the pain of dealing with the
various differences in build platforms. It is the replacement to the `node-waf`
program which is removed for node `v0.8`. If you have a native addon for node that
still has a `wscript` file, then you should definitely add a `binding.gyp` file
to support the latest versions of node.

Multiple target versions of node are supported (i.e. `0.8`, ..., `4`, `5`, `6`,
etc.), regardless of what version of node is actually installed on your system
(`node-gyp` downloads the necessary development files or headers for the target version).

## Features

 * Easy to use, consistent interface
 * Same commands to build your module on every platform

I solved this by following ‘rdagger’ steps, but with a slight variation.

I have used windows powershell with admin previlege
At the step meteor ‘npm install --global --production windows-build-tool’, after Python installed, I have waited a long without any status, so quit the power shell and browsed to ‘C:\Users\#user#\.windows-build-tools’, where I found ‘BuildTools_Full.exe’. I have ran it manually with default options. It also took a bit time, but atleast I can see the status.
It installed some C++ tools etc. After this, I resumed the ‘powershell’ and continued steps from ‘npm install -g node-pre-gyp’. Have ignored all the warnings! Then started meteor in my project folder. Voila!

It’s probably worth mentioning that you can totally ignore this notice and continue without any problems.
It’s just a harmless notice that the js implementation is slower than a natively built one

Thank you, it solved the issue.

Thanks! It works for me. I’m using Windows 10 64-bit.
