Error when space is used in process.execPath - spawn ENOENT at erronoException (child_process.js:980:11) on win2k8server with node v0.10.15

When running this way I get the error.

worker = new forever.Monitor("worker.js", {
    silent: false,
    fork: true,
    max: 1,
    sourceDir: process.cwd(),
    options: args
});

It works when using:

worker = cp.fork("worker.js");
worker.send(monitorConfig);

Okay...
Discovered that on this particular windows machine node.js installs to default directory of "C:\Program Files\nodejs"

process.execPath returns C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe

On line 226 of file monitor.js it has cmdarr = this.command.trim().split(/\s+/); which is obviously making the command C:\Program and the "script" to run is Files\node.exe or whatever.

Any tips for handling this?

So I've come to the conclusion that the only real way to do this would be to pass the { command: 'node.exe' } instead of letting forever-monitor determine the pathExec?

Okay, ended up fixing this with:

worker = new (forever.Monitor)("worker.js",
    silent:false
    fork:true
    command:process.execPath.replace('Program Files','Progra~1')
    max:1
    sourceDir: process.cwd()
    options:args
  )

+1 on this issue (should this really be closed if the original problem wasn't solved?)
