CentOS上的Node.js ibm_db安装错误

Question

I'm making a simple app with angular and nodeJS, and need to connect to DB2 to access some procedures. The nodeJS server is installed in a Centos 6.5 server machine, but when I tried to install ibm_db using npm it showed some kind of error, started with

{ [Error: Command failed: In file included from ../src/odbc.h:23,
                 from ../src/odbc.cpp:25:

and ended with some kind of GYP error.

> gyp ERR! build error
> gyp ERR! stack Error: `make` failed with exit code: 2

gyp ERR! not ok

And when I tried to run the nodeJS server, it showed 'could not load the bindings file' error.

How do I install this module properly? I'm using nodeJS 0.10.36 and installing both ibm_db version 0.0.8 (the one coming from package.json) and version 0.0.10 result in the same error.

Answer 1

Somehow, my colleague was able to install ibm_db module on another nodeJS directory. Maybe my app's directory dress is too long, I don't know, but I just copied the module from my colleague's directory to my own, and it now works perfectly.
