Maybe you can try to install the Arduino node (whit the firmata funktion)... And see if you gat same error.

Ben

[gemini86]

You may be better off going to the node.js website and downloading the latest LTS version and installing it. There will be an option to check that will install build-tools.

[Eskolin]

Hi Gemini86

I have build me a new PC whit win-10 and install Node-red on it, and I have also installed all this node:

node-red-contrib-msg-resend

node-red-contrib-ui-led

node-red-contrib-ui-level

node-red-contrib-ui-media

node-red-node-ui-list

node-red-dashboard

node-red-node-wol

node-red-contrib-string

node-red-contrib-ui-svg

node-red-contrib-simple-gate

node-red-node-ping

node-red-contrib-flexradio

node-red-contrib-convert

node-red-contrib-image-tools

node-red-contrib-startup-trigger

node-red-contrib-ui-digital-display

But I get error on this node:

node-red-contrib-stoptimer3

and also on

node-red-arduino (Node to talk to an Arduino running firmata)

and I as you wrote, I installed the last node.js..... but still same problem

I am not a expert in node-red just a novice...but this problem is out of my mind

Ben

[Colin]

When you installed nodejs did you tell it to install the build tools?

[Eskolin]

HI Colin

yes I marked the field whit the option

[Eskolin]

HI Colin

Ben

[Colin]

@Eskolin

and I as you wrote, I installed the last node.js..... but still same problem

It is not the same problem, you are now getting a different problem. I don't use windows so don't know the solution to that one. Probably someone else can help.

[Eskolin]

but why can I install several other node's whit no problems...but this one is making troubel ???

[Colin]

I imagine it is those that need to compiled that need VS Studio.

[Eskolin]

Hi Colin

I hope that I can get some help with this problem.. I have no idea to fix it

But of you have time for it, try and see if you can install the node whit out problems....

Ben

[Colin]

I don't use Windows.

[Eskolin]

Ok if you don't use windows.... But maybe you got the Same error with your setup...

Ben

[Colin]

Visual studio is a Windows package, so that error is not going to appear on Linux.

[Eskolin]

HI Colin

I will try to install Ubunto on this Pc and then I hope the error disappear othere wise I will be back

Ben
