npm WARN cannot run in wd [email protected] node-gyp rebuild

When attempting to install bcrypt-as-promised on nodesource/trusty Docker container I get the following error:

npm WARN cannot run in wd [email protected] node-gyp rebuild (wd=/usr/src/app/node_modules/bcrypt-as-promised/node_modules/bcrypt)

Using bcrypt as normal works fine. I wonder if bcrypt just needs to be upgraded.

The semver range picks up the latest bcrypt version. I'm not sure why you are getting a rebuild on install. Was this a fresh install? If not, you might need to remove and reinstall from scratch.

Yes this is a clean install new build from Docker. Something screwy with npm (0.12.6) maybe. This also happens with bcrypt-then.

I encounter the same problem, "493 error Failed at the [email protected] install script 'node-gyp rebuild'." I am on the windows 8 platform. And I tried for several times.

Trying from Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr (running using vagrant on OS X) and trying to run this in a container, get it freezes w/o any further information:

> [email protected] install /gobalto/node_modules/bcrypt
> node-gyp rebuild

Maybe you check here npm/npm#8862 (comment), this solved my issue
