how to browserify a node-js module?

Unknown file type in nodejs app on smartos?

• In an attempt to get my nodejs app running on SmartOS, some of my modules are failing when the app attempts to start. Specifically, the module that fails is a module that is built with node-gyp. I actually can't get the module to even build on the machine due to an encrypted make exited with error 2message, so I scp'd it from my local box. Anyway, once the app begins to start I get "this" error Error: http://ld.so.1: node: fatal: /root/path/to/node_modules/file.node: unknown file type Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

• Answer:

  If you're looking for ideas only, I have one. Your linker or something is telling you that something from node_modules isn't a valid file type. I'd say it's either asking for a module not built correctly (gyp on SmartOS, how does that work?), or that it's trying to link a _javascript_ file into some binary. What file type is that file at all?
