Description

When i (on a Windows machine) generated a nodejs-express-server application and do:

  • add services//* controllers//* and node_modules/**/* in package.json (pkg assets)
  • npm install
  • pkg . -t node10-win-x64
  • run the exe
    I see errors about E:\snapshot (builded on a windows machine drive E:) :
    Error: EEXIST: file already exists, mkdir 'E:\snapshot\appname\uploaded_files

More important: when i copy executable to a windows machine without E: drive i get:
Error: UNKNOWN: unknown error, chdir 'E:\snapshot\appname\api

Research direction

Reproduce the nodejs-express-server generation on Windows using the reported package.json assets, npm install, and pkg . -t node10-win-x64 steps. Start by inspecting the generated application's handling of uploaded_files and api paths; done means the executable runs without hard-coded E:\snapshot paths and also works on a machine without that drive.
