node-gyp: NPM fails on msbuild.exe with exit code 1

Honestly I don’t know, you’re gonna have to figure that out.

I also faced same Error on MSBuild.exe with Window 7 and window 10 64bit machine. I had tried number of attempt with installation of windows-build-tools global but got repeated failure. But when i install windows-build-tools local folder, i got the success. ( npm install --production windows-build-tools )

I’m sorry, this is a bcrypt issue at this point. You’ll need to open an issue over at that repo.

Ok so try updating node-gyp. From that same directory:

$ npm install node-gyp

I am with a Windows 10 (64 bit) computer and I have experienced the very same issue. I managed to get it solved and here are my key steps taken:

1. Install the latest versions of Python (it may not be related😅), and “Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017”, and of course, Node.js and NPM;
2. As Admin: $ cd “C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm” $ npm install node-gyp
3. $ npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global Note that I have VS 2017, but configuring it as ver 2017 won’t work. Not sure why.
4. As Admin: $ npm install -g node-sass And finally, one last check: $ node-sass -v

Hope this can help you solve your problem. 😄

Oh, sorry, you need to do that from a Command Prompt with Administrator privileges. Right click on cmd and do “run as administrator” and try again.

oh boy, nevermind: updating Everything™ to the latest version worked out well shame. Thanks anyway and have a nice weekend! TGIF yay.

The real problem of this issue is variable setup , the “VCTargetsPath” 's variable was difference between window server and window 10.

If you used window 10, it need to set “VCTargetsPath” with set VCTargetsPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140

If you used widows server above command, it will give you some error then you need to set this variable via window system tool: System Properties>Environment Variables>System variables>New

Then you need to set variable to VCTargetsPath and value is C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140

Hi, I am facing issue in **npm install bufferutil _. It’s giving the error _msbuild failed with exit code 1 I have done all the things mentioned by @mousetraps for node gyp issue. I have latest version of node (v6. 3. 1), npm(v3. 10. 3), node gyp(v3. 3. 1) installed on my windows 7 machine.

Done following steps for node gyp issue.

1.Install VC++ Build Tools Technical Preview, choose Custom Install, and select both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 SDKs.

2.Install Python 2.7, and add it to your PATH

3.npm config set python python2.7 --global

4.npm config set python C:\Python27\python.exe --global

5.npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global

6.set VCTargetsPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140

Errors: msbuild error.txt

Please help

Caused by node-sass generally. So you should do this in your project directory.

First,

npm un node-sass 
// or
yarn remove node-sass

Then,

npm i node-sass --save-dev
// or
yarn add node-sass --dev

If you are using node v13 or later it may not work due to node-sass being buggy.

Try using nvm and change to an earlier version of node. I tried with node v10 and it worked fine.

Try using nvm and change to an earlier version of node. I tried with node v10 and it worked fine.

when someone (like me) use Discord.js v12, Node.js v13+ is required

i’ve installed Openssl but there’s no change, the lines:

c:\users\gilbert.node-gyp\0.8.1\deps\openssl\openssl\include\openssl…/…/e_os2.h(56): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: ‘openssl/opensslconf.h’: No such file or directory [c:\Users\Gilbert\WebstormProjects\NodeOfGames\node_ modules\bcrypt\build\bcrypt_lib.vcxproj]

are red

Check that your VS actually has C++ installed (just an option in Community editions) try https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/ near the bottom of the page for the installer to be on the safe side.
