Getting "Windows Script Host" : Error code 800A03F6, Microsoft JScript compilation error, when executing module after using npm link

Question

Windows Script Host prompts this error when trying to run your node cli

Steps to reproduce issue:

1. Create simple node 'Hello world' project
2. use npm link to link the package.
3. Try running the module using <packagename>.

Answer 1

I was able to run the module using this link at the to of my index.js(main) file #!/usr/bin/env node.

In the case of Node.js, this line is used to specify that the script should be run with the Node.js interpreter. When you run a script with this shebang, the shell looks for the node executable in the system's $PATH environment variable and uses it to execute the script.
