Failed at the bcrypt@0.8.5 install script 'node-gyp rebuild'.

I cloned the repo and tried running npm install, but got the following errors in the output terminal:

Can anyone assist? I don't seem to be getting a solution myself...

Hi Evert,
Try downgrading to node 5.X, the .nvmrc is using 5.5.0

[EvertS3]

Hi Renz,

I will try that, thanks.

[kgrube5]

Or npm install --save bcryptjs and go to app/server/modules/encrypt.js and change bcrypt = require('bcrypt') to bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');

I also had to run npm uninstall sqlite3 and then run npm install --save sqlite3

@kgrube5 Your solution works, thanks!

[dsoldera]

Thanks @kgrube5! Its works now.

We need to insert this solution on the README.md for other people.

Hi, This is still very much an issue, and it seems like the repo is pretty far behind as we are currently in Node version 8 and this only works with 5. How should I be fixing this because the solution above does not seem to work?
