Nodeclipse + nodemon error

Question

When I try to run an express app in nodeclipse, it gives me the error,

23 Jan 11:58:04 - [33m[nodemon] v1.0.13[39m

23 Jan 11:58:04 - [33m[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter rs[39m

23 Jan 11:58:04 - [33m[nodemon] watching: .[39m

23 Jan 11:58:04 - [32m[nodemon] starting node /home/rdteam/workspace/NedvedNodeExpressTest/app.js[39m

[31m[nodemon] unable to run executable: "node"[39m

However, when I run from command line that node /home/rdteam/workspace/NedvedNodeExpressTest/app.js or nodemon /home/rdteam/workspace/NedvedNodeExpressTest/app.js

both work without problem.

Pls help.

Regards Hammer

Answer 1

In my case (running os x) I quick solved it setting the full path in :

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/nodemon/lib/monitor/run.js

function run(options) {
    var cmd = config.command.raw;

    //Added line
    cmd.executable = '/usr/local/bin/node';

I was able to solve this problem by using the forever module, and configuring Nodeclipse's 'Node monitor path' to point to forever (*../npm/node_modules/forever/bin/forever*)

• npm install forever
• Open Eclipse -> Preferences -> Nodeclipse
• Set the 'Node monitor path' to your installation of forever, and you're done.

I ran headlong into this problem whilst setting up Nodeclipse, and getting my node programs to work on Eclipse Kepler running on Mac OS X 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion)
