Error on connect about forge-rcdb.nodejs

Try to make sure python is installed properly on your system and PYTHON environment variable is defined and points to python.exe. Also update npm and node versions to the latests.

[Mykita]

Hi, I have updated versions to the latest and installed Python 3.6.2.
EDIT: I tried with Python 2.7.13 (which generated a build).

Still, I'm getting some errors/fails.

• Where can I define and point the PYTHON environment variable to python.exe?

Here's the rest of the errors I got in return (sorry for the long paste - but you might see something in here that I obviously did wrong):

Mykita, to get past this I had to download/extract GTK manually to c:\GTK

That is an issue with your dev environment not the project, so I will go ahead and close this. Cheers.
