I am not sure it went wrong. I have MSVC 13 installed.

@lovell Yes. Sorry. Actually MS build independent package doesn't install all necessary packages. You must install Vistual Studio to get node-gyp working. It wasn't package bug but windows. Hate windows. Moving to mac soon.

I guess last error was because of network timeout. But Now, I am getting new error

Hello, the pertinent error here is:

MSBUILD : error MSB3428: Could not load the Visual C++ component "VCBuild.exe".
To fix this,
1) install the .NET Framework 2.0 SDK,
2) install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or
3) add the location of the component to the system path if it is installed elsewhere.

It's probably best for you to look through the solutions suggested in the related issues reported against node-gyp https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/search?q=MSB3428&type=Issues&utf8=%E2%9C%93

See also https://github.com/Microsoft/nodejs-guidelines/blob/master/windows-environment.md#environment-setup-and-configuration for updated info about no longer requiring a full MSVS install for node-gyp on Windows.

Good luck!

@lovell Or is there any way sharp can be build manually?

Ok. Now.. after upgrading node and npm with npm config set msvs_version 2013 --global which set msvc version to 2013, I have managed to make some progress.

Now I am getting following error...
