Node.js explain Errors in REPL?

Question

I tried this

.save myShell.js

that is followed by this error:

Failed to save:myShell.js

why do I get this error ?

Answer 1

I save the situation with the start of the node.js command promt. By windows install you get (so was after install on my sys) some several shortcuts , one with the node.js icon and it's name ist Node.js and another that is called Node.js command promt - if you want to use the .save command to save the session you must to run the "Node.js command prompt". Of course with some more work you can get more.

Answer 2

Permissions issue.

2 options:

• Run "Node.js" app as administrator (right click on the icon in the start menu "run as admin"
• Run "Node.js Command Prompt" app and then type "node" which will put you in REPL
