Get error when install node-sqlite3 on windows 8 - node.js

Question

Good day for everyone!
My OS: WINDOWS 8
Installed software: VS2012 expess, Python 2.7.5, Windows8SDK, node 0.10.17, npm 1.3.8
I got error:
C:\Users\sapa\worksapce\node-sqlite3\build\Release\obj\global_intermediate\sqlite-autoconf-3071700\sqlite3.c(606):
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdarg.h': No such file
or directory
[C:\Users\sapa\worksapce\node-sqlite3\build\deps\sqlite3.vcxproj]
when I installed module node-sqlite3 on my OS.
For installing I used command npm install node-sqlite3 and got this error. After that I used installing from source:
I cloned source from github https://github.com/developmentseed/node-sqlite3
then I used command node-gyp configure and got
C:\Users\sapa\worksapce\node-sqlite3>node-gyp configure
gyp info it worked if it ends with ok

Cloud you help me in this problem?

Answer 1

It seems like you are trying to build a 64 bit installation (Platform=x64).
A 32 bit node v0.10.22 with npm install sqlite3 works for me on windows 7

Answer 2

set like this， and then have a try:
npm config set msvs_version 2012
npm config set python c:/python/python.exe
