@cliffordfajardo it seems to be one of the dependencies. If you remove all of the "^" from package.json, then npm install, it works fine.

[cliffordfajardo]

@johnlindquist - I removed all of the ^ from the version numbers of my package.json & did a clean install & still no success.

EDIT:
I misunderstood & removed the ^ from the project I was using instead of the actual json-server package located on my computer at usr/local/lib/node_modules/json-server/. Once I removed the ^ from the package.json inside of the json-server package (usr/local/lib/node_modules/json-server/), deleted the node_modules folder & did npm install my json-server package began to work again =).

Thanks @johnlindquist

[johnlindquist]

@cliffordfajardo it's lowdb@0.13.0-beta.3 that breaks it. beta.2 is fine.

I've released a fix (v0.8.14) and I've deprecated the bad releases.
Sorry all for the inconvenience and thanks @johnlindquist for the help.

Let me know if you have other issues.
