How to rebuild epoll package in electron?

Question

I try to rebuild an electron app but I got this error regarding the epoll installation.

Building module: epoll, Completed: 0gyp: name 'openssl_fips' is not defined while evaluating condition 'openssl_fips != ""' in binding.gyp while trying to load binding.gyp
✖ Rebuild Failed

I am using a raspberry, I did update it too. But it didn't work. These are the dependencies installed.

}

I deleted node_modules with package-lock.json and installed everything again. I updated the raspberry with apt-get upgrade. I don't know how can I solve this issue. Do you have any ideas?

I have a same problem too, but i am using a serialport not epoll.

So, I think the cause of this problem is electron modules not the native module.

 yarn run v1.22.15 $ electron-rebuild -f -w myapp \\ Building module: bindings, Completed: 0gyp: name 'openssl_fips' is not defined while evaluating condition 'openssl_fips != ""' in binding.gyp while trying to load binding.gyp × Rebuild Failed An unhandled error occurred inside electron-rebuild node-gyp failed to rebuild 'C:\\Users\\node_modules\\@serialport\\bindings'.

This problem started yesterday. There were no problems in the last week.

I already installed the windows-build-tools, node-gyp, python 3.x.

I set the npm config & yarn config & python Env path, msvs_version too.

I reinstalled above packages many many times but not work electron-rebuild.

That is whole Error messages. There is no more Error messages.

What should we do?

Answer 2

In my case, after updating NodeJS to version 17.0.1, the same problems started.

The whole problem was in the bcrypt package, it no longer meets the standards of version 17

In my case, reduced the version to 16 helped.

Answer 3

electron-rebuild v3.2.5 released.

The problem was solved after updating!
