Had to configure some permissions in the new file though (just compare the permissions in the old and the new file and make sure they’re the same). Thanks a lot for the help!

I’m getting an error while trying to run the ./configure, though.
These are the error messages:
”
./configure: line 2: $’\r’: command not found
./configure: line 22: syntax error: unexpected end of file
”

The first one is easy enough, it’s just to remove the empty line, but the end of file error has me confused. Any ideas how to fix this would be much appreciated!

Best,
Oskar

Regarding the Windows executable, I have also heard that for local developmment, it should be stable enough but, definitely not for production.

Thanks for the comment.

Some people seem to say ( http://blog.tatham.oddie.com.au/2011/03/16/node-js-on-windows/ )the Windows executable of the unstable version (v0.5.9 – http://blog.nodejs.org/2011/10/10/node-v0-5-9/ ) is already actually quite usable.

And of course, I would love to get to see a windows version of SpiderNode …
