back story: in trying to uninstall iojs and reinstall node, I entered a world of shizzao but finally got node and npm installed successfully....I tried installing node-gyp globally to no avail...

Delete your $HOME/.node-gyp directory and try again.

Aside, many tools don't handle spaces in path names well (/Users/ernest son/...).

sorry, when you say "$home" do you essentially mean usr/local/bin? that's what "which node-gyp" yields in term...or do you mean another location?

I did change my user name by eliminating space for "_". thanks for the heads up

I mean the HOME environment variable. :-) node-gyp normally downloads the development tarballs to $HOME/.node-gyp, i.e., /home/username/.node-gyp or /Users/username/.node-gyp.

thanks, i figured out what you meant....just tried npm install and it appears i still have rebuild issues. it looks as though my user rename didn't propogate..(?)

Maybe you need to log out and log in again? It's also possible that $HOME/.npmrc has some outdated variables.

so redelete $HOME/.node-gyp and also .npmrc? logout and try again? I already restarted after user name change...

Maybe just edit your .npmrc in case it contains valuable things like tokens.

i see a .rvmrc folder in $HOME, but no .npmrc.....and how exactly would I edit it (if I could find it)?

If you don't have a .npmrc, don't worry about it. If you do, just vim will do; it's a text file.

I don't have one...any other ideas? I think I've tried everything on our
list

#809 (comment).

getting same problem here when trying to install ember-cli

same problem here with contextify.

for me, the solution was fixing the space in my home folder (that was a whole other "can o' worms"). then 'npm install' worked like a charm. also, I suggest reaching out to the folks at npm if it truly is npm related. They're great!

I also had the node-gyp rebuild error while installing utf-8-validate package through npm. Removing the space from my filepath worked for me.

Nothing of what suggested above worked for me, however, I solved my issue switching to a different node version (e.g. using nvm).

same here, I had to recreate the whole project

@belvederef

Switching from node v12.3.1 to v8.16.0 with nvm solved this for me.

Thanks @belvederef 🎉

used nvm and downgraded to node v11.10.0, which solved my problem

I always have a problem to rebuild a old ember app despite a yarn.lock because of this package, unacceptable...

@woprandi

@woprandi: The system itself differs from the one where the bindings compilation worked,
so it fails, this shouldn't happen, but this package has this kind of issue.
You could try to install the app dependencies inside a VM/container that runs on an older *nix distribution (from which you know that it worked in the past) and hopefully it compiles.

@punitnathani

Only @punitnathani's solution worked for me. Downgrade from node@12.x.x

to

npm install -g node@11.10.0

@pthornhi

For me as well @pthornhi . I had spent, probably, a few days for experiments...

Follow these steps to resolve the issue.

1: Make sure you have build-tools installed.
2: Update node-gyp
3: Delete package-lock.json and node modules folder and run npm install again.
4: Deleting ~/.node-gyp folder and run npm install again.

For those who are using AMI 2, I resolve it using

sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

Since my errors were

Gotta love hundreds of people checking in on a closed issue to no avail. Good maintainer ethics!

This page is for that specific issue from 3yrs ago, which was solved. It is not catch-all place for all node-gyp failures. If you have issues with building a node module:

open an issue in that module issue tracker,
if that does not help and you are suspecting issue with node-gyp itself, open new issue here with your specific system config and error message
