What should have happened?

the nmea packets for the configured devices should appear on the screen.
The matching pure nodejs application prints the nmea packets

HI @khanziaullah can you confirm which versions of node and elecron you are using? the exception info doesnt seem to match the error messages (and if you are using elecctron 17 then an update might be needed as it is no longer supported https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/electron-timelines )

Hi @GazHank, I have the same error and I am running the latest version of [email protected] and [email protected]

[GazHank]

Thanks @andres-mestra would you be able to confirm your error message(s) and the version serialport that you are using?

Hi @GazHank, I have the same error and I am running the latest version of [email protected] and [email protected]

What application are you trying to build? I want to understand the use case.

Thanks @andres-mestra would you be able to confirm your error message(s) and the version serialport that you are using?

I am using version 11, however this happens since version 10
I opened an issue on the electron forge repository about this problem and the workaround, it's not really a serialport issue

@GazHank I think this error was caused by node-gyp-build, and serialport use it
prebuild/node-gyp-build#53
when I use webpack to bundle my electron app, i will got the error, so I have to external serialport.
