- Ensure the URL is correct and includes `https://`
|
||||
- Check Railway logs for any errors
|
||||
|
||||
**Windows: "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect" or npx command not found:**
|
||||
|
||||
This is a common Windows issue with spaces in Node.js installation paths. The error occurs because Claude Desktop can't properly execute npx.
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution 1: Use node directly (Recommended)**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"mcpServers": {
|
||||
"n8n-railway": {
|
||||
"command": "node",
|
||||
"args": [
|
||||
"C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npx-cli.js",
|
||||
"-y",
|
||||
"mcp-remote",
|
||||
"https://your-app-name.up.railway.app/mcp",
|
||||
"--header",
|
||||
"Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECURE_TOKEN_HERE"
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution 2: Use cmd wrapper**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"mcpServers": {
|
||||
"n8n-railway": {
|
||||
"command": "cmd",
|
||||
"args": [
|
||||
"/C",
|
||||
"\"C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\npx\" -y mcp-remote https://your-app-name.up.railway.app/mcp --header \"Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECURE_TOKEN_HERE\""
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To find your exact npx path, open Command Prompt and run: `where npx`
