Installation under Windows

[ghost]

It is really hard to use zone117x/node-stratum-pool under WIndows. I am giving up. Here are some obstacles i could overcome:

• install node.js v0.10.30
  • "npn" brings Error: ENOENT, stat 'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm'
  • Bugfix: create empty folder User\AppData\Roaming\npm
• install git
• on Windows Server: install .NET 3.5 Feature
• install .NET 2.0 SDK
  • we need C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcpackages\vcbuild.exe in PATH
• install Visual C++ 2010
  • several updates, read http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/96611-how-do-i-install-microsoft-visual-c-2010-and-microsoft-windows-sdk-7-1
  • we need C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\stdint.h in PATH
  • we need C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Lib\winv6.3\um\x86\kernel32.lib in PATH
• find ammintrin.h ( http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/answers/90383-fix-problem-when-mex-cpp-file )
  • place it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include
• copy some files of https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1i.tar.gz
  • we need bn.h and other files from "crypto" folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\openssl
• git clone https://github.com/zone117x/node-stratum-pool node_modules/stratum-pool

next problem: npm update

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'kernel32.lib' [C:\Users\Ser vice\Downloads\test\node_modules\stratum-pool\node_modules\bignum\build\bignum. vcxproj] gyp ERR! build error gyp ERR! stack Error: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\bin\msbuild.exe fail ed with exit code: 1 gyp ERR! stack at ChildProcess.onExit (C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules

you may try to use npm update --msvs_version=2012, with it you will see a lot of code errors c++ files there not compatible with visual studio compiler possible it may be compiled with minGW ..but as I see node-gyp can't do it on windows
