I'm all done. Running bower install & npm install for you to install the required dependencies. If this fails, try running the command yourself.

Many many many same trouble!

npm/npm#6309 (comment)

I believe that f24b552, which is included in npm@2.1.0, fixes this problem, but since I don't have a reproducible instance of it, I won't know if it fixes the problem until you install npm@2.1.0 and use it in your build. Please do so, and let me know if it works. Thank you for your patience!

Try npm install -g npm and add global install exec directory to first of path env.

I tried doing your advice, but could not work.

I used the nodist, can now work.

Thanks
