I am trying to install nodetime module to profile my nodejs app..
When i run > npm install nodetime
the files are downloaded. but when node-gyp rebuild runs.
I get the following error.
Command failed: CreateProcessW: Access is denied
The same thing happens, when i try to download v8-profiler.
Nodejs ver: 0.8.15
node-gyp: 0.7.1
I have tried this on both my dev machine that runs window 7 and on windows server 2008 where this app will be hosted..
Any help is appreciated. Please let me know if more explanation is required
Update:
Sorry I had ignored this post for a while.. Had a chat with someone I assume is the author of nodetime and here are the things required for nodetime to run on Windows.
Python version 2.7
If on windows the PATH environment variable for python should include python.exe Eg: C:\Python27\Python.exe
It requires CPP compilers that come with Visual C++ Express edition and Windows 7 64-bit SDK (SDK compiler is required for 64-bit version of nodejs).
Hope this helps.
Try just set PATH=C:\Python27;%PATH%
DO NOT set PYTHON variable (check that its not set on your machine).
I had incorrectly set the PYTHON variable some time ago - which then caused me this headache for ages until I managed to figure out what was wrong.
