I'm trying to install webworker-threads, a node addon that requires gyp. I followed the gyp instructions for setup, so far I'm still getting an error when trying to "rebuild":

I'm on a Windows 7 32 bit system.
Sooo to spare some time here's my personal checklist:
Paths: node is in both user and system path. npm is in user path. Python path is set too.
Python: 2.7.3 installed at C:\Python27
VisualStudio C++ 2010 AND 2012 Express installed
node version v0.10.8
ran everything with administrator privileges
Commands executed: npm install -g node-gyp
npm install webworker-threads
Then the error appears.
Do you guys by any chance notice something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks a lot in advance for your guidance!
try npm install –msvs_version=2012. This command will ask NPM to use visual studio 2012 to build.
http://www.kevgriffin.com/specifying-visual-studio-version-in-npm-installs/
After spending a while to get this to work (for me accepted answer didn't work, for me it's just half solution) i did following:
Sadly, you must have visual studio (i installed express edition 2013 for DESKTOP)
Installed python 2.7.3 (you don't have to set any environment variables)
Run cmd as administrator and go to you project root (where is you package.json file)
First run: npm config set python C:\Python27\python.exe
Then: npm install -msvs_version=2013
The trick is in command npm config set python ...path_to_python_exe... which will be provided by npm to dependency which needs python i guess.
Got Windows 7 64 bit.
Did all the above but I still got the error which was mentioned.
What worked for me was:
Uninstall Microsoft .NET Frameworks (I got more than one version)
Open regedit and navigating to:
hkey_local_machine/software/Microsoft/MSBuild
Remove all .net versions (I got there 2 and 3.5 sub directories)
If You have OS 64 Bit repeat steps 2 & 3 for %WinDir%\SysWOW64\regedit.exe
Reinstall Microsoft .NET Framework
Hope it will spare some time for you.

I have been stuck with this error since the past 2 days. Any help will be appreciated. I am trying to rebuild the app to use serialport npm package.

Btw I have had installed the microsoft build tools both manually and using npm command : npm install --global windows-build-tools. Here's what I installed manually via .exe:
Been using this https://github.com/bradtraversy/simple-electron-react boilerplate.
Following these steps solved the issue for me :
Install the latest Visual Studio toolkit and visual-studio-installer.
Install node-gyp globally with admin privileges.
Install electron-builder#22.11.1

I just did a git clone off a starter template on Gatsby-- bumped into this error when I ran 'gatsby develop'. I've deleted the node module, as well as the sharp module in node module. To no avail.
Do let me know what's going on at this point! :-)

Delete the node_module folder first and then try out the below-given methods! This works for me
Update the version of the sharp package manually in the package.json file and then try to run the command npm i sharp
or first, install sharp package and then run the command npm install
In Windows, you may need extra dependencies to make the sharp module work. Try running:
npm install --global windows-build-tools --vs2015
Upon installing this package, it downloads and installs Visual C++ Build Tools 2015, provided free of charge by Microsoft. These tools are required to compile popular native modules. It will also install Python 2.7, configuring your machine, and npm appropriately.
Check Gatsby on Windows docs for further information.
On my Windows machine another possible solution is to update all the related gatsby plugins (for images).
I did it with yarn, of course, as suggested delete the node modules beforehand.
yarn upgrade-interactive --latest
Pick the onces you need, hope that solves the errors.
The problem could be anything but what worked for me was downgrading my nodejs version, specifically to 14.15.0 using nvm.
steps to follow :
Downgrade nodejs version.
Delete any package-lock.json or yarn-lock.json from the root folder.
Delete node_modules folder.
Delete .cache folder.
Run npm install or yarn install.
Hopefully, it will fix the issue, if it doesn't you can refer to the issues page of the library and more specifically on this issue
my error output looks like this:

However have zero idea how to resolve it.
Been searching the web and stackoverflow - messing around with uninstalling Xcode reinstalling exode looking hombrew... etc but as of yet absolutely no joy.
I'm Python dev by trade so node is most certainly not my expertise. If someone could shed some light on how to resolve this issue that would be wonderful. I can't believe I'm the only one having it.
Thanks
Wow after reading many posts and many issues on GitHub... the solution in my case wasn't making sure I had Xcode installed, and the corresponding command line tools installed and making sure I'd accepted the Apple Licence agreement. It was simply a question of updating the version of node that I was using. In my case I was using version 6.x this was the version that came pre-installed on my brand new mac. Annoying. Visit https://nodejs.org/en/ to upgrade your node version. At the time of writing this the versions I upgraded to was 12.16.1 - in the event that's helpful to a future reader of this question 'n answer session :)
Really feel the error message could have been way more helpful here, but hey that's how things are some times.

I am using windows 10 64 bit. I almost ripped my head of falling install atom-beautify. I was receiving "npm ERR! zlib: unexpected end of file". I tried everything. At last I reinstalled atom then deleted the .apm file and finally was able to install atom-beautify package. Hope this information help someone.
On Linux/Mac, the issue is solved by taking the following steps:
Open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T)
cd /home/your_username/.atom/.apm/marko
ln -s 4.13.4 4.13.3
apm install atom-beautify
On Windows, you can use Git Bash and taking the above steps.
Or, on Windows taking the following steps:
Open cmd/powershell
cd C:\Users\your_username\.atom\.apm\marko
mklink /J 4.13.3 4.13.4
apm install atom-beautify
After deleting the .apm folder I was able to install the atom-beautify package.
Yes this Works!
For MAC/LINUX:
Open terminal
cd /home/your_username/.atom/.apm/marko
ln -s 4.13.4 4.13.3
apm install atom-beautify
For WINDOWS :
Open cmd/powershell
cd C:\Users\your_username\.atom\.apm\marko
mklink /J 4.13.3 4.13.4
apm install atom-beautify
Turning off the Windows firewall and antivirus worked for me.

Do I need to install python in order to work with karma or is something else wrong? Thanks in advance for any help!
You need to install the command line interface so that karma will be recognised:
npm install -g karma-cli
Karma Installaltion Guide
The node-gyp error is because python isn't installed. To avoid that error follow the following steps:
Install python (v2.7.10 recommended, v3.x.x is not supported): http://www.python.org/getit/windows/
Make sure that you have a PYTHON environment variable, and it is set to drive:\path\to\python.exe not to a folder
