Error Message: Node.exe is not a valid Win32 Application

I have installed www.deployd.com on my Windows-XP PC for learning purposes. The book am studying ask me to execute the following command at the prompt :: 

> dpd create sportsstore

but i get the following error message

Node.exe is not a valid Win32 Application

What must i do to rectify this error?

Thanks.

UPDATE

The node.exe it is complaining about is inside the the tools folder of Deployd. It is like this C:\program files\Deployd\tools\Node.exe is not a valid Win32 Application

Solution

  • That error is usually an indicator of trying to run a 64bit application in a 32bit OS.

    The solution is to change the version of node to the 32bit version. Be careful to choose the same version as your tutorial to avoid any conflicts.
