Cannot build node-xmpp-bosh on windows.

geekyme commented 11 years ago

Hi there, i'm following a tutorial on how to build a chat system and node-xmpp-bosh was recommended as a core ingredient. I'm using a windows system 32-bit. Installed node-gyp and node-expat already.

I tried to npm install node-xmpp-bosh and this is the error that i get:

There seems to be a problem installing node-expat. Try copying the built copy of node-expat to the node_modules folder and try again.

@dhruvbird i'm not sure what you mean by 'Try copying the built copy of node-expat to the node_modules folder and try again'. I just opened my node_modules folder and saw node-expat inside already. I did not copy it in.

@shawnlim2010 Install Python 2.7.3 and try again.

not even with python 3.3.0

dhruvbird commented 11 years ago

@shawnlim2010 What version of all the packages (node/python/windows/npm, etc...) are you using. If you can let me know, I'll try to get my hands on a windows machine and try it myself.

geekyme commented 11 years ago

i'm also using a windows 7 32bit system

posniewski commented 11 years ago

I'm getting the same error as @shawnlim2010.

Windows 7 64 bit
Python 2.5.2
node v0.8.9
npm 1.1.61
MS Visual Studio 10

The error complains that expat.h doesn't exist, and then goes on to say that the native compile failed, but that's OK. However, the entire install fails. I know nothing about NPM, but perhaps something is set as "required" when it should be "optional"?

posniewski commented 11 years ago

Looking at package.json, I see that node-expat 1.6.1 is required. Using npm install node-expa@1.6.1 on its own, I get the same error. So, the problem is in node-expat. This was reported here: https://github.com/astro/node-expat/issues/47 which has an integrated fix here: https://github.com/astro/node-expat/pull/48.

The current node-expat (2.0.0) installs and builds correctly on its own. Can node-xmpp-bosh use that instead?

dhruvbird commented 11 years ago

@posniewski Thanks for figuring out the issue. To get it working right now, you can just go ahead and change the dep. to 2.0.0 manually in the node-xmpp-bosh package.json file. We'll look into seeing if NXB is stable with node-expat 2.0.0 (it should be, and if not, will get it to that stage before the next release).

dhruvbird commented 11 years ago

TODO: Update node-expat to 2.0.0 and test to verify correctness, stability & performance.

dhruvbird commented 11 years ago

@posniewski Alternatively (for the time being), you can try downgrading node.js to v0.6.17 (since I know that master works on that version since that is the version I am currently on).

dhruvbird commented 11 years ago

@posniewski @shawnlim2010 I've tested current master with node-expat v2.0.0 and it seems to be working okay. The changes are on current master. Hopefully, it should be released next week or so. Thanks for the report & the resolution. Do let me know if the current master works okay on windows.

we have installed node-xmpp-bosh 0.5.0 on windows system which has no methods to find removeListener method in srv.js.

issue solved by download another setup of node-xmpp-bosh from following link https://github.com/dhruvbird/node-xmpp-bosh
