Gulp Validator plugin failing to install.

See original GitHub issue

I am unable to install the gulp-amphtml-validator plugin into my node project.

How do we reproduce the issue?

Environment: Windows 10.0.14393, Node 7.5.0 (latest), npm 4.1.2 (latest)

  • Make a new empty folder and navigate to it with an administrator command prompt
  • npm init (accept all defaults)
  • npm i --save gulp-amphtml-validator

Resulting error:

C:\Users\drasmussen\Documents\test-app>npm i --save gulp-amphtml-validator

> amphtml-validator@1.0.15 postinstall C:\Users\drasmussen\Documents\test-app\node_modules\amphtml-validator
> /bin/sh -c "exit 0" 2> NUL && rm NUL || node postinstall-windows.js

fs.js:907
  return binding.stat(pathModule._makeLong(path));
				 ^

Here is the debug log: npm-debug.log

I have tried installing amphtml-validator globally, uninstalling it globally, installing the plugin globally, uninstalling the plugin globally—nothing seems to let me install the gulp plugin successfully.

Thank you for looking into this.
