NPM install problem
Closed this issue · 9 comments
I'm getting an error whenever I try to use npm to install this. Any suggestions please?
Node v0.10.10
Ubuntu 12.10 (but I have exactly the same error on CentOS 6.2)

Confirmed, got same problem on Debian 7.
In addtion open_offline fails, error message is "garbage" in errbuf (2 chars). Debugged into c-code - it looks that pcap.open_offline gives handle != NULL back (so this looks fine!) after that it crashes somewhere assuming in Handle.Close(ret). Might be same issue, but other symptoms. I've tested with several node versions and libpcap versions.
I fixed it on my local copy (git clone, changes pcap_session.cc) by putting this two lines in pcap_session.cc
#include // I think this might not be required
#include // memcopy is in this
NPM install works then with "npm install --unsafe-perm".
It did NOT solve the open_offline issue. I might open a new one for it. open_live seems to work after successful installation with the changes above.
Installation works fine on my 10.7.5 Mac.
@seti123: Can you please open a PR incorporating your solution. It would be highly appreciated.
I have the same problem and I'm using Ubuntu 12.04. The error log is exactly as it says in this isuue.
Well, I have the module working but not by npm install. I had to clone the repo and then build the module. Any thoughts of why?
@nomack84: There seems to be some syc problem on the latest repo and the push to npm. Let me check it out.
@nomack84: I'm sorry for the sync error. Got some histories messed up. Please try npm install and let me know if it works or not?
It's working! Thanks for the fast answer.
