FYI, adding the --debug flag didn't give any additional info other than some info on the Node modules installed.

[JamesMGreene]

Any ideas here, @pmq20 et al?

[pmq20]

wow this is weird. And the log did not give enough information. Would you love to share your work dir ie.C:/Users/gre63396/AppData/Local/Temp/nodec/work_dir with me so that I can inspect what inside caused the problem?

Getting the same error :/ Is there any special thing I could do wrong while installing mksquash? I just unzipped it and move it into C:/Windows

[JamesMGreene]

@dunklesToast: I did the same.

[JamesMGreene]

@pmq20: Unfortunately, I will not be able to share that given it's full of proprietary code. 😕

[dunklesToast]

I solved it with changing the temp directory. try the -d /tmp/ flag

Using the -d flag did NOT resolve this issue for me.

@JamesMGreene This seems to be a bug in mksquashfs. Could you just run mksquashfs on your work dir to confirm this? If it fails you could try deleting some content of your work dir to filter out the culprit.
