It can not find the addon binary.
Could you send also npm install command result?

This command normally should download the prebuilt binary from github. If it can not find it, it should try to compile.

hello

im having the same problem with for a nitrojs server (for a nuxtapp, im using webtorrent, which use this plugin deep).

reproduction: https://github.com/mirsella/node-datachannel-nitro (pnpm i && pnpm dev) (same error with npm)

thanks

[mirsella]

i just tested with a empty deno project

import nodeDataChannel from "npm:node-datachannel";

nodeDataChannel.initLogger("Debug");

and error

so its not just nitrojs

[murat-dogan]

Thank you for your notes.
I don't have a Centos. But probably it is related to the GLIBC version.

Can node 23 run on Centos 7?
I am asking while v7 is old.

If I download a VM here, can I install node 23 and regenerate the issue? Or do I need some other modifications?

https://www.linuxvmimages.com/images/centos-7/

[mirsella]

for my it's on archlinux, so far from CentOS

[murat-dogan]

I am on Ubuntu 22.04 and I have tested your repo.
No problem for me.
I have tried with node v20 and v23.

Do you see this file in place build/Release/node_datachannel.node?
Which version arch are you using and how I can re-generate it?

[mirsella]

thanks for the answer.

arch doesn't have release, so hard to get the exact version. I'll try to do a VM with a clean arch install to test.

the file is there in node module

[mirsella]

docker run -it --name arch archlinux sh
pacman -Sy git nodejs npm
git clone https://github.com/mirsella/node-datachannel-nitro
cd node-datachannel-nitro
npm i
npm run dev

then we just have to trigger the route hot reload in another shell:
docker exec -it arch sh -c 'echo "" >> node-datachannel-nitro/server/routes/index.ts'

thanks

[murat-dogan]

In my case there was no error

What is the difference?

[mirsella]

thanks for testing

did you run in another terminal the other command I gave to trigger nitro hot modules reload ?

I'll do a quick screen record to exactly demo the problem.

thanks

[murat-dogan]

I have exactly these commands run.
#298 (comment)

except github clone, I have for easy working create a volume for the app folder

[murat-dogan]

Ooops sorry. Now I undestood your point.
And got the same error.

Testing more.

But I can definitely say that this is not related to
#298 (comment)

Maybe it is better to create another issue
