Nodeclipse will not launch or debug an application on OSX Maverick, nodeclipse 0.8.0 and JDK 1.7.03_45

Question

When I try to start or debug a nodejs application, I get an error:

java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "node" (in directory 
"/Users/<USERNAME>/Documents/Projects/<PROJECTNAME>"): error=2, No such file or directory.

I can run the application just fine in the terminal.

My system is OSX Maverick, Eclipse Standard / SDK Version: Kepler Service Release 1 Build id: 20130919-0819, Nodeclipse 0.8.0, jdk1.7.0_45.jdk

Not sure if this is an error or configuration error. I would like to know how to fix this.

Answer 1

It should solve the problem on its own, since it is clear that the node cannot be found, so you need to check the current configuration Window -> Settings -> Nodeclipse

Disable Find node on PATH,
then select node exact location, e.g. on Windows C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe
