Edge Fails to load or install cleanly on Windows 2008 R2

[BenAHammond]

Installation gives the following message:

---

[Error: The specified module could not be found.
C:\Users\bahammon\Desktop\CircuitCommentProcessing\node_modules\edge\lib\native
win32\x64\0.10.0\edge.node]

Success: platform check for edge.js: node.js x64 v0.10.26
edge@0.10.0 node_modules\edge
├── nan@1.7.0
└── edge-cs@0.2.7

And trying to run an otherwise tested application gives the following error:

CircuitCommentProcessing\bin\Release\

module.js:356
Module._extensions[extension](this, filename);
^
Error: The specified module could not be found.

I verified that this file exists:
C:\Users\bahammon\Desktop\CircuitCommentProcessing\node_modules\edge\lib\native\win32\x64\0.10.0\edge.node

And manually installed the latest .Net framework and verified its configuration. Help?

I am unable to reproduce this on Windows 8.

What is the OS version?

Can you try running Process Monitor to see if any errors are reported while node loads the edge module? (e.g. missing DLL dependencies)

[BenAHammond]

I solved it by installing the previous version. It has something to do with
the latest release.

Is it related to #246 and #242?

[BenAHammond]

Yes, I believe it is. Close as a dupe?

Well as long as the others are fixed :)

Hi thomasz,

I had the same error on a Windows 2008 Server R2. My app worked on windows 7.

When I launched process monitor on server, i saw a problem when trying accessing msvcp120.dll. So I took this file from my computer and put it to node_modules\edge\lib\native\win32\x64\0.10.0 directory
on server and it worked.

Maybe this file should be embedded in project and copied when building like msvcr120.dll?

What's your opinion about that?

Best regards.

@ludoviclefevre splendid, thank you for the data. Yes upon further investigation it appears msvcp120.dll is a new native dependency of edge 0.10.0 compared to 0.9.x. This is likely due to a major refactoring of code to use nan in order to support node 0.12. nan must have taken dependency on msvcp120.dll.

I agree the proper fix is to ship edge with msvcp120.dll. I the meantime a workaround of installing VC++ Redist for VS 2013 should also do the trick.

Edge 0.10.1 just shipped and it should fix the issue. Can you take it for the spin?

[BenAHammond]

All fixed, thanks!
