I ran I tithe same issue. It turned out to be the dependence with dtrace. I emailed the author of restify and he said he's got a version where dtrace is ootion.

Thank jg, but now I moved my dev environment to Ubuntu linux and everything works fine for the moment. It seems Windows build of Nodejs isn't that good enough to work with. On Saturday, March 10, 2012 10:04:45 PM UTC+8, jg wrote: > > I ran I tithe same issue. It turned out to be the dependence w

That'll do it. I wouldn't say the Windows nodejs environment isn't that good though. I've had a really good experience so far on Windows and Microsoft has been putting effort into making nodejs run well on Windows and I'm NOT a Windows fan. My household runs all Mac. On Thursday, March 15, 201

Just wondering, how many people actually deploy to Windows servers? It seems supporting Windows takes some effort which could have been focused on making things better on *nix servers. We virtualbox + mapped network drive from ubuntu server (samba) to code in Windows. The low tech solution works

Even more importantly, in this case, dtrace will probably never be ported to windows, so it really ought to be an optional dependency, imo. https://github.com/mcavage/node-restify/issues/100 Go go open source! On Fri, Mar 9, 2012 at 07:31, Maiah Macariola wrote: > I see, so it seems that we hav

A no node is fine on Windows. Node is more than fine on Windows, in fact node runs faster on Windows than it does on Linux, and the entire API is cross-compatible with any OS node supports. Where you'll run into issues is outside the purview of node itself. Personally, I spend the entirety

The short period of time I tried running Node.js on Windows made me more religious. Each time I tried installing a module, I'd pray that everything goes fine ;). On Fri, Mar 16, 2012 at 12:11 PM, Brandon Benvie wrote: > A no node is fine on Windows. Node is more than fine on Windows, in > fac
