Hey there, pretty new to node and even newer to mongodb but loving it so far. I had a hell of a night trying to get around two build errors last night while trying to install mongodb. I don't have my errors to paste but these are the exact ones I was getting only in my environment:
$ npm install mongodb npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.9 npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/kerberos npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.9 npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/kerberos > kerberos@0.0.2 install > c:\Users\Ludicritz\Desktop\Umass-running-app\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\kerberos> > (node-gyp rebuild 2> builderror.log) || (exit 0) c:\Users\Ludicritz\Desktop\Umass-running-app\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\kerberos>node "c:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp-bi n\\..\..\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild > bson@0.1.9 install > c:\Users\Ludicritz\Desktop\Umass-running-app\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\bson> > (node-gyp rebuild 2> builderror.log) || (exit 0) c:\Users\Ludicritz\Desktop\Umass-running-app\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\bson>node "c:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp-bin\\. .\..\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.Cpp.InvalidPlatform.Targets(23,7): error MSB8007: The Platform for project 'kerberos.vcxp roj' is invalid.

Any chance someone there is someone out there that can help be solve this? I was able to code with what installed but the builds are broken and I'm guessing I'll need what's broken if it's a dependency. Help and thanks!
