I installed Node.js binaries (with cygwin support) on Windows Server 2008. How can I correctly target npm dependency installations? Try this:
C:\Apps> node runDependencies.js sampleModule
I recently ran into a similar problem while configuring npm on an older Windows system. I found that the key issue often revolves around ensuring that the environment and path variables are correctly set. I ended up bypassing certain compatibility problems by using native command prompt commands instead of cygwin wrappers for node. Adjusting npm’s configuration and making sure that the paths for the node_modules were accurate helped resolve the issues. In my case, checking for any outdated dependency references also streamlined the setup process.
