@blackyangell Run this command in your terminal: which node. What’s the output?

I am using Ubuntu 13.04 with the default repositories. Node version is v0.6.19. Sublime 3 build is 3047 and I just pulled HTMLPrettify from the repo about 15min ago.

The default package for Ubuntu’s nodejs puts the binary in the path: /usr/bin/nodejs. which nodejs confirms this.

I tried setting node_path to the path, but it still failed to find it. I then tried symlinking /usr/bin/nodejs to /usr/bin/node and updated the node_path accordingly it still failed.

Setting node_path to the parent directory also failed.

I am using Win 7 + Sublime 3.

I get the same dialog and the log shows .
I updated the path in the HTMLPrettify.sublime-settings and still get the same error.

Debugged it a little and looks like the command is failing @ return subprocess.check_output(run, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT, shell=True) (last ln of HtmlPrettify.py)

I have no experience with Python dev. Found this question on SO: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3028786/how-can-i-fix-error-6-the-handle-is-invalid-with-pyserial

Can some one suggest what am I doing wrong?

I’m using elementery OS

~$ which node
/usr/bin/node

putting that in the setup file, does not work…

Same issue as thismachinechills, ubuntu 13.04, changed path, tried symlink to no avail.

@jedvardsson I had the same issue. Apt-get repository only has node v0.6.19. Just download latest Node.js (0.10.17 as of now) and drop it in /usr/bin directory. Easy fix.

for all you guys with Win7 and sublime text 2,
the node_path needs to be «C:Program Filesnodejsnode.exe»

that one works for me beautifully

That´s right. I just download and installed the node.js and put the installed path

On Mac, I did a ls -l /usr/local/bin/node and it showed that node is linked to /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.15/bin/node

1. I changed the config to:

{
    "node_path": "/usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.15/bin/node",
    "format_on_save": true
}

1. Restarted Sublime Text 3, and it works like a charm.

I’m running node v0.10.15

restarting sublime worked, with path /usr/local/bin/node in my iMac.

Finally "C:/Program Files/nodejs/" has worked for Win7 64bit & ST v2.

HOWEVER I still get this warning as long as either the filename or the path contain non-latin characters!
This seems like a plugin bug.

Ubuntu 12.04.3
nodejs v0.10.18 from chris-lea PPA
which node returns /usr/bin/node, so i’ve tried
"node_path": "/usr/bin/node"
Plugin still gives me the same error.

but on another machine with same OS and soft everything is fine.

@kalligator @victorporof don’t know why, it suddenly worked now.
Here is my setting of node_path :

{
  // Simply using `node` without specifying a path sometimes doesn't work :(
  // https://github.com/victorporof/Sublime-HTMLPrettify#oh-noez-command-not-found
  // http://nodejs.org/#download
  "node_path": "C:/ProgramFiles/nodejs/node.exe",
  "format_on_save": false
}

i swear i have do no thing, it just worked when i retry it one day, while it failed with «ode.js was not found in the default path. Please specify the location.» by the same setting a few days ago.

lucky, but still confused a lot, does anybody know why ?

suddenly failed again now

Anyone experiencing this problem, please pull and try again.

Unfortunately nothing has changed

Finally i got the reason, as @kalligator said, it was caused by the «filename or the path contain non-latin characters! «， such like «F:COPY健康中国梦», the HTML-Prettify works very well after i changed «健康中国梦» to «health-china» !

besides, @matijakovacevic, in WINDOWS, the node_path should be like this.

"node_path": "C:/ProgramFiles/nodejs/node.exe"

@gudaomaoni
«node_path»: «C:/nodejs/node.exe»,
does not work

@everthis , please check the things below :

• Have you installed node.js correctly?
• Does the «node_path» same with the path where you installed the node.js?
• Check with my last comment on this issue, make sure that your filename and the file-path were all english.

annoying, doesnot work:

«node_path»: «C:/Program Files/nodejs/»,

neither:

«node_path»: «C:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe»,

Hi guys, I’m gonna explain howto fix that for windows users. Other os users (e.g linux .. etc) can simulate the steps as i’m not an expert .

1. Download the program from here » http://nodejs.org/ » hit install.
2. Install it and as default it’s installed in the path » C:Program Filesnodejs «.
3. Now goto Sublime text and set the path of node.js as follows (I guess you can reach the config screen by pressing «ctrl+alt+h», «n» or from right click)
4. the path should belike that > «

{
// Simply using node without specifying a path sometimes doesn’t work
// https://github.com/victorporof/Sublime-HTMLPrettify#oh-noez-command-not-found
// http://nodejs.org/#download
«node_path»: «C:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe»,
«format_on_save»: false
}

-Note-
The path has forward slash not backward.

Done ^_^ Hope that helps.

Sorry for my bad english

win 7 + sublime 2 it work
my set:
C:Program Files (x86)Sublime TextDataPackagesHTML-CSS-JS PrettifyHTMLPrettify.sublime-settings
{
«node_path»: «C:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe»,
«format_on_save»: false
}

C:Program Files (x86)Sublime TextDataPackagesUserDefault (Windows).sublime-keymap
[
…
{ «keys»: [«ctrl+alt+h»], «command»: «php_beautifier»},
…
]

Happened to me, as well, and the copy/paste from terminal had a space «prefix». All that is needed for it to fail. «linux»: » /home/anders/.nvm/versions/node/v4.0.0/bin/node»
—————-^

Check for spaces, first!

same error, but can’t modify the «Nodejs.sublime-settings» and i’ve no folder in the packages folder in application Support on osx 10.11.2…

all of a sudden, out of the blue, i got the same problem. used to work before yesterday :/

`which node: /usr/local/bin/node«

and my plugin settings:

{
  // Simply using `node` without specifying a path sometimes doesn't work :(
  // https://github.com/victorporof/Sublime-HTMLPrettify#oh-noez-command-not-found
  // http://nodejs.org/#download
  "node_path": {
    "osx": "/usr/local/bin/node"
  },

  // Automatically format when a file is saved.
  "format_on_save": false,

  // Only format the selection if there's one available.
  "format_selection_only": true,

  // Log the settings passed to the prettifier from `.jsbeautifyrc`.
  "print_diagnostics": true
}

Hmm, how are y’all opening Sublime? I’ve seen such errors sometimes when opening directly from the shell via a subl link to the sublime executable from my /usr/local/bin. Looks like in those cases Sublime simply doesn’t care about environment vars and paths anymore, but I’m not entirely sure what happens.

mine magically works again. I didn’t do anything though

• 2016-02-01 magically what?
Dumping this app. Developer has elected to move over to Atom which-also-then-sucks, Gossip?
• Sublime is falling apart
no longer auto saves — no longer reopens files open on close — no longer formats HTML correctly
MUST MANUAL CORRECT EVERY LINE
• DEAD PROJECT on mac… assange-snowdon closet-love toy now? grief!

@anyotherway i switched to atom in fact which doesn’t suck at all in my opinion

time for a revisit, thanks

stopped working

Using node.js path on 'windows': h:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe
Unexpected error(<class 'OSError'>): [WinError 6] Неверный дескриптор

path is totally correct

Restart and everything is OK! Just in my case.
I hope it may help

In windows I have unistalled and reinstalled the plugin ‘ HTML-CSS-JS Prettify ‘ and CTRL+SHIFT+H is now working. Hope it helps

Here is one which worked for me
«node_path»: {
«windows»: «C:/Program Files/nodejs/node»,
«linux»: «/usr/bin/nodejs»,
«osx»: «/usr/local/bin/node»
},

run into the same problem…
osx 10.12.1
sublime build 3126
which node => /usr/local/bin/node

package not working without any error displayed, any suggestion?

@yashangqingsong’s solution is right for Windows Version. the key point is point out the file path which need to modify. the path: C:Program Files (x86)Sublime TextDataPackagesHTML-CSS-JS PrettifyHTMLPrettify.sublime-settings

I resolved by step:

1. uninstall nodejs
2. remove htmlprettify
3. reinstall nodejs
   4.reinstall htmlprettify
   then, i dont know why, but it worked.

«node_path»: {
«windows»: «D:/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe»,
«linux»: «/usr/bin/nodejs»,
«osx»: «/usr/local/bin/node»
}

In case somebody keep getting this message (for windows):

1. Get error
2. Open console ‘Ctrl + `’
3. Copy Command ‘WHEATEVER_IS_HERE‘ returned non-zero exit status 1
   error: You won’t be able to use this plugin without specifying the path to node.js.
4. Now try to execute it in ‘cmd’ You will get a better explanation on what going on.

In my case, the ‘run.js’ of HTML prettify was missing — removing and installing the plugin again worked as a charm.

I use Windows 7 x64 and Sublime Text 3 b3126 with the latest version of Prettify.
Also had the same problem problem and solved it by changing the default windows path slashes from:

C:somepathtonodejsnode.exe

to:

C:/some/path/to/nodejs/node.exe

and now it works!!!

Just my 2 cents…

restart sublime,it works.

In my case this DOES NOT work

"node_path": "/usr/lib/nodejs/node-v6.11.0/bin/node",

but THIS WORKS

"node_path": { "linux" : "/usr/lib/nodejs/node-v6.11.0/bin/node" }

Go figure!

In my condition this error happened because I was using nvm. Node was accessible from the terminal yet sublime couldn’t see it. I set the URL manually in the settings by typing the following in the terminal:

And copied the output and added to node_path in the settings:

"node_path": whatever-the-url-you-get-from-the-previous-command,

Then you have to shut down sublime completely. Start it again then it will work

This is still not working for me.
I’m in the exact condition of @ahmadalfy and I did the same exact steps.
I have re-installed the package, set the node path, restarted ST, but that didn’t work for me (on mac os, ST3).

A hint: Even tough I’ve changed path of my node installation the console still logs this: Node.js was not found in the default path: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/bin/node'. That is NOT the path I’ve set. So either it doesn’t read what I set or there is something hardcoded somewhere in the code.. 🤔

«osx»: «/usr/local/Cellar/node/8.5.0/bin/node»

2020 and it is still not working.
