child_process.spawnSync() not return anything. #728

Closed netcore-jroger closed 7 years ago

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

In my company's computer：

let result = childProcess.spawnSync('D:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe', ['--version']);

work very well, can get return value. but 

let result = childProcess.spawnSync('node', ['--version']);

not work and the code behind it will not execute.

I use myself computer：

let result = childProcess.spawnSync('node', ['--version']);

was work very well.

I have added D:\Program Files\nodejs\ to the environment variable.

This problem caused my vscode editor to not work properly. see#45048199

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Can you provide the output of the childProcess.spawnSync('node', ['--version']); where this does not work?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@vsemozhetbyt 

childProcess.spawnSync('node', ['--version']);

not return anything. I just found that the shell: true can run properly.

    let result = childProcess.spawnSync('node', ['--version'], {
        shell: true
    });

    console.log(result);

work very well. but shell default value is false. Can I change the default value in global?

gibfahn commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger I suggest you use execSync, which actually spawns a shell to run the command in.

gibfahn commented 7 years ago

~But spawnSync returns things for me:~ I'm not on Windows, sorry.

Works for me: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/15943089/28153326-7c5a588c-67ad-11e7-9960-491d58e0263c.png) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/15943089/28153371-babf47a4-67ad-11e7-92e4-ccb0bf9ad7d6.png) ``` ➜ ~ ❯ node ~ > require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version']); { status: 0, signal: null, output: [ null, , ], pid: 10931, stdout: , stderr: } ```

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger So if you run require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version']); in the v6.11.1 RERL, it just exits without any output?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

yes !

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

cc @nodejs/platform-windows

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

in terminal also without any output.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@vsemozhetbyt 

require('child_process').execSync('node', ['--version']);

work very well.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

I found a similar question link

gibfahn commented 7 years ago

In that case it's probably something to do with needing to spawn a batch shell on Windows. If you're running batch commands execSync is the better choice.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

In fact, this is a problem with vscode editing. I have a little bit of debugging vscode code found this problem.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

A lot of places in vscode use the child_process.spawn () function.

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Do you mean node --version in the cmd.exe terminal also outputs nothing? What does where node output?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

is there any way to update the shell in the global default value is true？

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

I manually modify all vscode editor code using the child_process.spawn () shell is true. The Vscode editor is working properly.

bzoz commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger, does this work for you, from a command shell: node -e "console.log(require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version']))"

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@bzoz not work. But the following code works fine:

node -e "console.log(require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version'], {shell: true}))"
bzoz commented 7 years ago

Is there anything printed out? Any error message?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

nothing.

bzoz commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger that is strange. You should get at least some error message.

Could you try couple more things? What does running where node returns? Does running require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version']) from the REPL exits node? I mean, what you get when you do this: image

Also, is your D: drive unusual? A subst drive, ram drive, network share, etc>?

Can you also try running require('child_process').spawnSync('not existing') ?

Thanks for your answers!

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@bzoz Look at the picture below: 3

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger In the last case you should escape backslashes: require('child_process').spawnSync('D:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe');.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

Oh sorry. 4

The first parameter, if provided with a complete path, has always been normal.

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Repeating @bzoz's question:

Also, is your D: drive unusual? A subst drive, ram drive, network share, etc>?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@vsemozhetbyt normal drive. 5

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

6

In good condition.

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Does this happen only in REPL? Is there any output if you run a node file.js with this code in file.js:

console.log(require('child_process').spawnSync('node', ['--version']));
netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@vsemozhetbyt The same result is in the REPL and in the code file. When I specify the shell option is true, it is completely normal

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Does this happen with any other .exe files from path env in C: and D: drives? Is require('child_process').spawnSync('notepad'); OK?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@vsemozhetbyt invoke-notepad

invoke notepad is ok.

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Is require('child_process').spawnSync('python', ['-V']) OK (python is on the D: drive, right)?

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

can also be. 7

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

python install path: D:\Program Files\Python27\

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

Strange. cc @bnoordhuis, @cjihrig concerning child_process.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

8 9

refack commented 7 years ago

What's strange in this picture is that the REPL seems to exit image

vsemozhetbyt commented 7 years ago

And node file.js also exits without any output or error.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@refack yes. exited.

refack commented 7 years ago

So I want to say it's something is the system outside of node. @netcore-jroger could you take a look at the event log (run eventvwr.msc) if it says anything about node.exe crashing.

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

I found into the installation directory and execute the command require ('child_process'). SpawnSync ('node', ['--version']); can work properly. But it will not work properly on the terminal.

14 10 11 12 13

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@refack has nothing information in Windows Application events.

refack commented 7 years ago

@netcore-jroger Can you also post the output of set or cmd /k set

netcore-jroger commented 7 years ago

@refack set command. 15

refack commented 7 years ago

So there are two thing that are not common:

  1. Your %ProgramFiles% == C:\Program Files, but nodejs is in D:\Program Files\nodejs
  2. There are directories with " in your %Path%which is unusual, maybe even the cause... image

For example my %Path% is:
