Sam removed this on me.

Related: let's figure out better, more intention-revealing names for .powenv and .powrc.

Wow. I didn't realize that Pow was actually trying to load an .envrc file. This conflicts with direnv which is also using .envrc.

direnv lets you to use custom commands in the .envrc file and it causes Pow to not load.

Is it possible to get rid of .envrc loading completely?

I just edited ~/Library/Application Support/Pow/Versions/0.4.1/lib/rack_application.js to stop pow from trying to load .envrc.

direnv loads .envrc with non-standard shell functions, pow sees these direnv features as errors and crashes and burns.

+1 for removing .envrc

Another workaround is to wrap the contents of your .envrc so that only direnv will see them:

if [ "$(type -t direnv_load)" = 'function' ]; then
  # Whatever you want only direnv to execute
fi

+1 for @paracycle and removing .envrc

Especially as it's pretty common to have direnv configured to work with things like spring

In the meantime, I'm using the same workaround as @rsutphin and it works well.

Also having the direnv issue. Thanks for the workaround @rsutphin!
