node.js oracledb 1.11.0 install failure with node-gyp rebuild failed

I tried installing node.js with proper Python version. I am running into this issue:
362 verbose stack Error: [email protected] install: `node-gyp rebuild`
362 verbose stack Exit status 1
362 verbose stack at EventEmitter.<anonymous> (/scratch/mardhana/node/node-v6.3.1-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/utils/lifecycle.js:242:16)

362 verbose stack at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:215:5)

I am using node.js 6.3.1.
There are lots of reference node-gyp rebuild failure but nothing helped in my case. I will appreciate any pointers.

That log snippet had no useful information (which is sadly common for node-gyp logs).
Check standard gotchas such as having a new-enough compiler, the correct proxies, the correct values for OCI_*_DIR, using sudo -E.

It might very well be the reason since it worked fine on Linux 7 which has the gcc with the correct level of support. Will Visual Studio Community Edition cut it on Windows or do I need Visual Studio Profession?

I believe CE will work. Also see https://github.com/oracle/node-oracledb/issues/483#issuecomment-242620104
