PixelAdmin builder not working #2

Closed rodroll closed 7 years ago

rodroll commented 7 years ago

Hi, I bought the PixelAdmin Theme. The Pixel admin builder is not working. Every time a try to execute it, I get the message "Before continue, please install Nodejs". Nodejs is installed and I added the path to the nodejs executable file. I have a windows 10 64bit.

Hi rodroll,

Try to execute the next commands in the command prompt (Win + R, then cmd.exe) to check nodejs availability:

node -v npm -v

you must get something like:

v7.2.1 3.10.10

Let me know about the result.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Same result: node - v7.2.1 npm - 3.10.10

Hi rodroll,

It's strange. I made fresh install of Win 10 x64 + Node.js v7.2.1, but I cannot reproduce the issue - Builder is launched correctly...

Builder checks nodejs availability by executing two commands node -v and npm -v using child_process.execSync. Try to reproduce this behaviour.

In the command prompt run the next commands:

node String(require('child_process').execSync('node -v')) String(require('child_process').execSync('npm -v'))

The last two commands must return the next result:

'v7.2.1\r\n' '3.10.10\n'

Also check your system paths for duplicates. Node.js executable path must be like C:\Program Files\nodejs\

Hi smnedelko,

I got the expected result: 'v7.2.1\r\n' '3.10.10\n' Just checked the system paths. Deleted, restarted, added the variables again, restarted the computer and still, no luck.

Ok, It seems like problem is not in Builder itself. Try the next variants:

  1. Run app with administrator privileges

  2. Set owner - right click on exe > Properties > Security > Advanced > Find "Owner" label and click Change > Enter your username > OK > OK > OK

  3. Copy pixeladmin directory to the system disk (for example, C:\Users\Username\pixeladmin-2.0.0)

  4. Check that your antivirus is not blocks Builder. Try to turn it off - don't worry, each release is scanned by Kaspersky antivirus

I tried them all and no success. I also tried to run the builder on another user account on the same computer and it worked. I tried again in my account (admin) and it did not work.

I spent the 5 days trying several things, but none of them worked. For other reason, i bought a new computer and now it is working.
