Instalation error on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 #57

makensi · 2012-08-01T20:04:16Z

Hi there,

I want to appologize beacuse i think that it's not new topic(as I read) and I don't want to disturb anybody. I tried to install it, but seems impossible and I think that I'm doing something wrong.

Requirements Information:

OS Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
Xcode (4.3) tools available in path: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/ (which shows information for gcc c++ and g++).
First I started with last 0.8.4 Node and finally i changed it to 0.6.13 as appear in README.md as last option but result was the same.

This is the stack (with node 0.6.13):

ncpro:test_server makensi$ npm install websocket
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/websocket
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/websocket

> websocket@1.0.6 install /Users/makensi/Projects/workspace_node/test/test_server/node_modules/websocket
> node-gyp rebuild

info it worked if it ends with ok

I just released version 1.0.7 with a complete overhaul of the native module building process. It seems to work for me across the board. Try that and let me know how you fare.

makensi · 2012-08-14T19:35:30Z

Hi

Finally I upgrade all:

Node: v0.8.6
Xcode: v4.4.1

And I have attempted install it another time, but seems that i have same problem:

Are there extra requirements(like Windows systems) needed to compile it?

theturtle32 · 2012-08-14T19:53:49Z

It looks like the "make" command can't find your C++ compiler. Have you compiled other software on the command line before?

I recommend installing Homebrew and compiling something small with that. I suspect once you have Homebrew working, this will work as well.

Homebrew can be found here: http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/

However, as of version 1.0.7, WebSocket-Node will now still work even though the native module compilation failed. I added JavaScript fallback implementations. It won't be as fast, and it won't validate against receiving invalid UTF-8 data, but otherwise it will work just fine.

This is an XCode configuration issue on your machine. Are you sure you have the command line tools installed?

theturtle32 · 2012-08-16T18:39:24Z

Any update on this?

theturtle32 · 2012-08-16T18:43:37Z

Closing, as I don't believe this to be an issue with WebSocket-Node.

Hi,

Sorry but i took several vacation days :P.

Finally, I found it. Seems that exists something wrong inside global node modules. After remove them (global node_modules directory) compilation was perfect.

ncpro:test_server makensi$ npm install websocket --websocket:verbose
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/websocket
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/websocket

> websocket@1.0.7 install /Users/makensi/Projects/workspace_node/test/test_server/node_modules/websocket
> node install.js

Thanks for all your help.

hi buddy, Can you explain what is "global node_modules directory" and how to change it ? thanks a lot!

makensi · 2012-09-04T19:26:59Z

Hi,

I thought that it was related with an one update that I did on my node installation with pkg installator. I just remove all modules under:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules

And finally I have reinstalled them; mainly gyp module which was throwing errors every websocket module built.

I hope that it will be useful for you

theturtle32 · 2012-09-04T19:30:37Z

Indeed, I have not used the pkg installer for Mac OS X and instead use nvm to install node, as I expect the vast majority of other developers do as well. This is far preferable since it allows you to switch instantly between multiple versions of node to test things.

Before using nvm, I generally used Homebrew or compiled and installed from the node.js source manually, which was also quite easy to do.

stevenshu512 · 2012-09-05T03:55:10Z

Job done! Thanks for your adivse.
The Real thing that created this problem is that websocket make process can not find the offical node.js installation path.

so the officall nod.js install in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/bin
But using nvm the author mentioned the path way is another. like this :

shao19@mac:~/nvm/V0.8.6/bin > ll
total 19656
-rwxr-xr-x 1 shao19 staff 10053684 9 5 11:08 node
-rwxr-xr-x 1 shao19 staff 355 8 8 02:56 node-waf
lrwxr-xr-x 1 shao19 staff 38 9 5 11:08 npm -> ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js

this is the whole different pathway that the websocket makefile can't not find the nod.js header file.so the issue appeared.
And I think we can solve this problem by writing the compatible makefile to adapt the offical installation path.

theturtle32 · 2012-09-05T05:17:14Z

I have no idea how that could be, since the Makefile doesn't reference any paths directly at all.

https://github.com/Worlize/WebSocket-Node/blob/0a05f4ede0c2f70381ee6f0e20bcc04aefa467c0/Makefile

theturtle32 · 2012-09-05T05:18:05Z

If there is a bug relating to paths, it's a bug in node-gyp, which is responsible for creating all the platform-specific artifacts required to do a native module compilation, not in websocket-node.
