Failed at the htmlstrip-native@0.1.1 install script 'node-gyp rebuild'.

I have attached my NPM debug log

npm-debug.log.zip

[zaro]

can you check if you have node-gyp dependencies installed:

https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation

I see you use Mac OS X , so you have python for sure, but maybe XCode Command Line Tools are missing.
Because there is no real error in the nodule, only node-gyp error.

@zaro I have this problem to on linux

using node 4.2.4
htmlstrip-native@0.1.3

[zaro]

@esatterwhite can you provide npm-debug.log ?

[esatterwhite]

npm-debug.zip

[zaro]

OK, it seems like its the same problem.
Do you have the prerequisites for node-gyp as listed here : https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation

• python 2.7
• make
• gcc/g++

If you are using Ubuntu you have Python already, so you can just do :

apt-get install g++ make

[esatterwhite]

no, arch. And all of that is installed. I build other native modules just fine

[esatterwhite]

this does install with iojs v2.5, 3.4 and other versions of node.

There is something you must not be accounting for with the 4.2.x version... (?)

[zaro]

Well I just tried on clean Ubuntu with 4.2.4 and everything was fine.

The npm-debug.log is missing the actual node-gyp output and errors.
Can you paste, or attach here, the terminal output of npm install htmlstrip-native ?

Definitely problem with node-gyp or how it is installed not the module itself.

gyp: /home/esatterwhite/.node-gyp/4.2.4/common.gypi not found (cwd: /home/esatterwhite/dev/js/fulfill/yarn/node_modules/htmlstrip-native) while reading includes of binding.gyp while trying to load binding.gyp

This issues : nodejs/node-gyp#313 , nodejs/node-gyp#819 seem related.
How did you install node/npm ?

[esatterwhite]

I used nvm

nvm install v4.2

[zaro]

I also used nvm to test on Ubuntu.
Unfortunately I am out of ideas, as this is something related to node-gyp , and I am not that familiar with it.

[polkolins]

I have attached my NPM debug log
I have no idea how to fix this
• Windows 10
• htmlstrip-native@0.1.3
• node v5.10
• C++ is installed
• python 2.7

I had the same issue today. What worked for me was removing the .node-gyp folder (next time node-gyp is called it will rebuild it).

Look for the line with ./node-gyp in your log and remove that folder (something like rm -rf ~/.node-gyp).

node-gyp will rebuild the folder next time it's executed.
