I am getting the same error on RHEL 7 environment.
Here is the npm-debug.log

Found the issue and it's not with the code and it's because of directory permissions and didn't properly install the bower requirements.

This worked:

git clone https://github.com/PGBI/kong-dashboard.git
cd kong-dashboard
bower update
npm install
npm start

I am also get "Cannot GET /", @gajen0981, could you please tell me which directory should give correct permissions?

Thank you @gajen0981 What you said worked had to update the bower and do npm install to compile the assets. But still could not access the APIs already created previously.

Also if you use Ubuntu ensure you install the node-legacy for it to some npm commands. And ensure you allow all permission on the folder so as to allow creation of files and folders easily

So in my case i had to do this:

git clone https://github.com/PGBI/kong-dashboard.git
sudo chmod -R 777 kong-dashboard
cd kong-dashboard
npm install
bower update
npm install
npm start

This was caused by an error at build time. Closing as npm package for Kong-Dashboard is now shipped pre-built.
