error on npm install node-core-audio

[airbone42]

Hi,

when I try to install node-core-audio to my Debian instance I end up with "make failed with exit code: 2".

Before that I get a warning in AudioEngine.cpp:78:51 that argument 3 has to be type "long int", but "unsinged int" was used.

Is that a known problem? How can I fix it?

Regards,
Tobias.

Hi! getting the same error here aswell, but on windows. Log below.

[Image removed]
I removed the image, and instead include this to better represent the problem.

c:\Users\<username>\<random path>\node_modules\node-core-audio\build\NodeCoreAudio.vcxproj(47,54): error MSB4025: The project file could not be loaded. Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 47, position 54.
gyp ERR! build error

EDIT:
So apparently this bug was caused by node-gyp because my user directory name (C:/Users/) contained non-valid characters. To fix this issue you have to rename your user account folder to something that only uses standard characters etc.

For a better explanation check out this thread: nodejs/node-gyp#297

Note! This issue is indeed not the same as OP's, but it's still an issue that should be noted to the users.. but because - as stated previously - the issue resides within node-gyp it should mainly be reported to their GitHub site.

I'm encountering a very similar error trying to install node-core-audio. Was this ever resolved?

To install the lib on ubuntu, i had to do a little modification, see #41

Same problem on Mac OSX. It says the command that failed is node-gyp rebuild
