v4.0.0 still gives compiling error: module did not self-register about onoff HOT 6 CLOSED

Your welcome. Have fun with onoff.

Additional information that may help others reading this issue: The "Module did not self-register" error was a runtime error, not a compile time error.

What is the exact command being used to install onoff and what is the complete output of that command?

Also, what is the output of the following commands?

node -v
uname -a
gcc --version

from onoff.

npm install onoff

V4.0.0

Linux raspberrypi 4.1.18-v7+ #846 SMP Thu Feb 25 14:22:53 GMT 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux

gcc (Raspbian 4.8.4-1) 4.8.4

onoff was just working fine with 0.10.30. I updated node to 4.0.0 and If I run the file where onoff included is:

home/pi/Desktop/ledWithNode/anotherTest/raspberry-nodejs-simple-led/node_modules/onoff/node_modules/epoll/node_modules/bindings/bindings.js:83

Did you uninstall and reinstall onoff after updating Node.js from v0.10.30 to v4.0.0? It's essential to do this as onoff depends on a compiled native module called epoll. A native module compiled for Node.js v0.10.30 will not function with Node.js v4.0.0. It needs to be compiled for the version of Node.js being used.

That makes sense and it works! Thank you!
