Node.bcrypt.js: dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found

Fixed in node 0.4.7.

Huzzah! :)

I am using bcrypt 3.0.1 and node 8.9.3 version and I get the error as stated above.

`dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found :__ZN4node19GetCurrentEventLoopEPN2v87IsolateE Referenced from: /Users/local/WebstormProjects/be/node_modules/bcrypt/lib/binding/bcrypt_lib.node

@dujra Try recompiling the addon. npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source

@agathver Thank you! This worked for me!

npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source

Worked for me as well! thanks!

This is happening for me with node 8.2.1 and bcrypt 3.0.2. I was able to fix it locally by recompiling as suggested by @agathver but that's not an option for me in production so I had to downgrade bcrypt.

Hey @andrewaarestad, which version of bcrypt worked for you? Thanks man!

@gastonelhordoy I haven't had any issues after downgrading to bcrypt 3.0.0.

Thanks @andrewaarestad, it worked!

@agathver thanks for the command. Any insight into why running this command fixes the error?

Worked for me using "bcrypt": "^3.0.2" and node v8.9.1. Interested to know what was wrong!

@andrewaarestad I tried downgrading to 3.0.0 but still had the same problem (Node v8.9.4). Running npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source worked for me, but that's not a very nice "hack". I'm interested if (and when) this can be fixed. It's not very cool for production environments.

Regards all

npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source worked for me as well but can anyone explain me why and how is it working

@PK1210 There was an ABI incompatibility between 8.X releases. You have to recompile from sources in order to bind to the correct symbols, if you are on the affected versions.

Worked for me! Thanks

September 2019 and @agathver solution npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source worked for me. Not sure why this is the case though? No one else on my team ran into this issue except for me. Thanks for the help!

@agathver Worked for me as well! Thanks :)

I forgot to nvm use in a new terminal window. It was installed with a different version of Node than the default system Node.

I just updated node to the latest version 13.x and that solved it for me :)
