npm install fails on Windows 10 #28

Closed deltreey closed 8 years ago

deltreey commented 8 years ago

I don't know why, but it appears to be complaining about an incompatible version of MD5 and talks about my system's architecture.

Any ideas?

md5 error can be ignored

hmmmm @deltreey did you get it to work?

deltreey commented 8 years ago

I'll take a look Monday probably. My laptop is in pieces at the moment as I'm moving hard drives around.

Ran it on my Win 7 work PC. See the debug log if you like.

@deltreey see this for a possible solution https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/4047

I am not encountering the issue currently. I see it in a dependency list for an app that I work on regularly, and I don't remember what was wrong back when I posted this. I'm closing this.
