Can't install mongodb dependencies for nodejs (windows)

Question

I'm trying to get a mongo database running with nodejs but when I type 'npm install mongodb' into my command line, I am getting the following error:

C:\Users\me>npm install mongodb
    npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb
    npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb
    npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.3
    npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.3
    npm WARN package.json bson@0.1.3 No README.md file found!

    > bson@0.1.3 install C:\Users\me\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\bson
    > node install.js

    CreateProcessW: The system cannot find the file specified.
    npm ERR! bson@0.1.3 install: `node install.js`

    npm ERR! Additional logging details can be found in:

It seems that bson0.1.3 is the issue. Does anyone know I might go about resolving this? I am using 64bit Windows 7, nodejs version 0.8.9, npm version 1.1.61 and have mongodb version 2.2.0 currently installed.

Answer 1

npm需要管理员权限才能调用CreateProcessW。

Answer 2

I've tried today and it worked fine for me the exact version of node and npm. Is there any info you can find in the npm-debug.log file?

Though note there is Issue created in the GitHub repository:
