Files from node modules not found from within the same node module.

[mschaaf]

We use the nodejs module polo in a application. This module starts a js file (monitor,js) by using cp_fork and gives only the file name as an argument. On startup node-webkit gives the following error "Failed to unzip the package file: /app.nw/monitor.js" but the file is located under node_modules/polo/monitor.js
We wouldn't like to change the packaging because this is the default npm package handling and doesn't need any extra work by maintaining the 3rd party modules.

How can we solve this?
Is this a bug in node-webkit or the 3rd party module?

Also if I change the path to the correct one (/app.nw/node_modules/polo/monitor.js) I get this error message.

@mschaaf It seems that child_process.fork('monitor.js') will fork another nw, then it will try parse the file package.json

@kingFighter child_process.fork is broken : #213
