i'm developing an application using nodejs and npm. I have Windows 10 and i'm using npm v.3.3.7 and node v.4.1.2.
To set them up i go through the next steps:
- Install NodeJs with npm
- Download Npm-master 3.3.7 from git and overwrite folder C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm
- Added on Enviromental Variables C:\Users\bilias7\AppData\Roaming\npm;C:\Program Files\nodejs; for current user and for system PATH variable.
Till here everything works i can use both node and npm from CMD and with an elevated CMD I am able to install global packages.
The problem starts when i'm trying to install gulp-sass which has a dependency on node-sass. The command bellow returns an error that node is not recognized as an internal or external command.
npm install -g gulp-sass
As you can see in the error bellow the error returned by the installation of node-sass package.
'node' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
npm WARN install:node-sass@3.3.3 node-sass@3.3.3 install: `node scripts/install.js`
npm WARN install:node-sass@3.3.3 Exit status 1
C:\Program Files\nodejs
└── (empty)
npm ERR! code 1
So i tried to explicit install node-sass using the bellow command
npm install -g node-sass
and I got the detailed error as bellow. I suppose that something goes wrong inside the install.js execution and it's not connected with command node but i can't figure out what is that.
