Electron Uncaught Error: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed

Question

I've successfully built node.js addon, which works well with Node on Windows. Now, I want to create a Windows app using Electron. When loading the module in HTML file, I got the error:

var dbr = require('./build/Release/dbr');

Something wrong with ATOM_SHELL_ASAR.js .

The issue only occurred on Windows. On Linux and Mac, it worked well.

How can I fix it?

Thanks!

Answer 1

您需要为Electron重建您的本机Node插件， 这些步骤在文档中列出 。

Answer 2

I'm using Electron 2 version and have the same error with another module.

I solved this problem by this advise on Electron page: To ensure your native dependencies are always matched electron version , simply add script "postinstall": "electron-builder install-app-deps" to your package.json .

And then I changed: "postinstall": "electron-builder install-app-deps && npm run lint:fix" . Then npm run postinstall .
