Error in Browser for newer version

[wreardan]

We are using Windows 7 x64 and version 0.10 of node.js

I was using an older version of Browserify (3.20.0) and successfully compiled our project.

However, my teammates installed the newest version (3.24.13) and the project compiles but when we try to run it in a browser we get the following error message:

Error: Cannot find module 'c:\Users\Martin Wickham\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\browserify\node_modules\insert-module-globals\node_modules\process\browser.js'

Hi,
Same here - in our output file, the very last line has a full path to browser.js. this path is incorrectly escaped: '\\' instead of '\'. (Four backslashes instead of two) e.g.:

C:\\Users\\bob\\PROJECTS\\xyz\\abc\\node_modules\\browserify\\node_modules\\insert-module-globals\\node_modules\\process\\browser.js

If I manually remove extra backslashes, then it works OK.

Using version 3.28.0.

Please help. thanks

Same problem happened to us today, same config (OS, node and browserify versions), same "manual fix" (removing extra backslashes).
-- edit : Browserify is actually in version 3.28.1

insert-module-globals does this:

var processModulePath = require.resolve('process/browser.js');

        return 'require(' + JSON.stringify(processModulePath) + ')';

Was it doing this before ? If so, how come it's not working now when it was working before ?
Another solution (well, just a suggestion, I'm new to Browserify) would be to convert the path strings on Windows so they never use backslashes but normal slash. The module id strings would still be unique and browserify could load modules normally in the bundled files. No ?

I don't have a good way to reproduce this since I'm on a linux laptop, so it's up to somebody on windows to send a patch!

Should be fine with the newest version of mine (0.0.2), I think this can be closed.

Closing since creationix/mine#3 was merged.
