Windows 7 - Installation exception

[aahad]

I have tried many times to install "bb-lp-cli" but it is not getting installed successfully. However "bb-cli" got installed successfully.

I tried (1) by running cmd as administrator , (2) tried by disabling antivirus, (3) tried using "--force" flag, (4) tried by "npm cache clean" but it did not work all the times.

I am getting following error all the times.

Please read the Windows section regarding installation of sime dependencies.

https://github.com/Backbase/bb-lp-cli/blob/master/README.md#important-notes

[aahad]

I re-verified the dependencies present on my machine. I have;

(1) Python v2.7.3 (2) Microsoft Visual Studio C++2015 (3) Windows 7 64-bit SDK

My Windows 7 64-bit SDK path contains v7.0A , v7.1A , v8.1 , v8.1A

the bin folder inside v7.0A , v7.1A does not contain "Setenv.cmd" file.

I just tried to change the npm cache location from"users" folder to another place. But it did not help either.

Hi @aahad thanks for the details provided , i have a question before diving into the problem. why you are trying to install the package from the same location where you cloned it? Can you try install it from another location, and before doing that please delete the cache manually, i know on windows npm cache clean doesn't work C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache

[aahad]

Yes I had tried from other locations multiple times. And when it did not work then I tried to download package and from within that directory I tried.

The npm cache clean is working fine. I see it deletes all stuff within that folder.

[aahad]

I just tried it on Docker Centos latest image. There it got installed but then it given other issues when executing the command ( "bblp --help or bblp --version or bblp " )

I am not putting those details in this thread, just keeping it focused on the windows 7 machine only.

[dragosh]

@aahad do you still have this issue?

[aahad]

Yes still issue.

[dragosh]

@aahad you don't need to download the package, and install it within the same directory (this will fail for sure). i would suggest to uninstall your nodejs and node_modules from previous installations and use a nodejs version manager https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows.

Let me know if you encounter the same problem or different on.

[aahad]

@dragosh I had one time only downloaded package and tried installing inside it when normal installation command/process was not working. Let me try to install NVM and check it out how it goes.
