Nodejs - Another installation is in progress - node.js

System - Win 7 64 bit.
Nodejs - node-v6.9.4-x64.msi
Installation error - Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one.
Solutions that did NOT work - Run as admin, Run via commandline as admin, log had same error i saw in installer, don't install online docs option,
Please help me to fix this. Thank you !

This will not be an issue with your NodeJs installation, it might be because of your previous installation (might be any other software) which might be still in progress or not exit properly.
To solve your issue, please try restarting your machine once and install. This will indirectly kill your previous unstable installation and allow you to install NodeJs

I had this issue with '2017-03-21, Version 6.10.1 'Boron' (LTS)'. Restarting my PC solved the issue.
P.S. However, this issue seems to be specific to the NodeJs installer. I tried installing other programs after the NodeJs installation threw up this error and they installed fine (even before the restart).

Cannot uninstall / repair / install Node.JS to my system

I installed node.js to work on a discord bot with VSCode but it didn't work.
I reinstalled it but ticked the 'install chocolatey' box this time, halfway through the installation I got 3 trojan alerts from my AV, and cancelled the installation.
Since then, I have been unable to uninstall, repair or reinstall Node.JS, through the Windows 10 uninstall function or from the Node.JS .msi file.
Each time I try, I get the same error message:
"The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed."
I've removed all instances of Node.JS from my program files and %appdata%, I've ensure the Installer Service is running, and yet the Node.JS application still shows in the Uninstall Tool and when I try to uninstall / modify / reinstall, it shows the same error, and seems to think it's still installed on my system! Not even Node.JS commands work in my CMD!
I've got no idea how to fix this, and I don't want to use glitch anymore to write my bot, so please help- or it seem's I'll have to factory reset my PC and hope that resolves the issue.
Thanks in advance, guys.
Godspeed.
EDIT: I tried installing a newer version hoping it would overwrite old Node.JS files. Didn't work. Issue still occurring.
Do these:
Open command prompt as Administrator and run /sfc scannow. It will scan and replace corrupted files.
Restart your PC when the scan is done.

Virtual machine "pc1" Netkit error?

Introduction
I've just installed a networking simulator Called Netkit. On Debian stretch stable. Using the official installation guide here.
Installation
After setting the correct paths and installing. I then run the check_configuration.sh script.
Everything is checked OK, and it has found the terminal emulator xterm which is needed for netkit. And recieve the complete message.
[ READY ] Congratulations! Your Netkit setup is now complete!
Enjoy Netkit!
The Problem
Running netkit using the command:
vstart pc1
The xterm netkit-kernel emulator starts running. However I'm getting an infinite loop of the same error message:
ubda: can't open "home/foo/netkit/pc1.disk" failed, errno= 13
So im guessing it's because the file is missing? if so how do i obtain it? and if not, what is causing this error. I've followed the install guide completely.
I'm assuming your system is not a 32bit system. Netkit is only supported on the 32-bit architecture(unless the compatibility libraries are installed). Hence I would suggest you download a 32-bit VM(instead of installing the libraries) and run Netkit on the same(worked fine for me).
Check position of your lab-folder..

Nodejs 4.1.1 does not run via daemontools - continuously get EPIPE errors

I'm running node.js on FreeBSD box, in a jail. I made an upgrade of Node.js from 0.12.7 to 4.1.1 and my configuration for daemontools stopped working - I get EPIPE errors and it keeps restarting and overwhelms the machine.
If I execute the same script in an terminal it runs fine.
Can somebody please help me with this
Thanks in advance
To make it work I switched from daemontools to runit - now it works like a charm
Try re installing it. I faced same problem, and I fixed it by reinstalling it.

"Process out of memory" when running Node.js or NPM on Mac OSX 10.5

I am completely new to both Macs and Node.js, so sorry if this one is a bit basic.
I am running Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and have just installed the last version of Node.js (released version, not built from source).
Whenever I attempt to run Node or do an NPM install, I get the following error message:
FATAL ERROR: CodeRange::GetNextAllocationBlock Allocation failed - process out of memory
Does anyone know what the problem is? If not, what would be the next steps to figure this out?
Edit: It turns out that if I run these commands a few times then they eventually work. So my work-around is to keep repeating the command until I get success. This is better than nothing but still not acceptable. Software like WebStorm, which needs to execute these tools, doesn't know about this workaround and fails all the time.
The issue seems to show up when running the distributed build of Node on anything pre OSX 10.6.
You can manually build the binary yourself if you don't have the option to upgrade your OS.

I'm running X.5.8, and node 0.10.13 was giving me this error message. I tried some earlier versions of node, and 0.10.3 works while 0.10.4 gets the error message. This is the x86 version, x64 seems to crash at .3 but works at .0. Oh wait, it's more complicated than that. Seems to make a difference when I make a symlink to the app in /usr/local/bin, it crashes. more often. Try a few different ones see which work for you.
I really need to get a new laptop.
