"npm run web-dev" fails with cannot find module error

[Former user]

Here is the ssh ouput within the virtualbox from the vagrant starter project:

root@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/home/vagrant/project# npm run web-dev

my-llllllllllllll@0.1.0 web-dev /home/vagrant/project nodemon --harmony -e js,json,css,hbs web.js

I'll try to diagnose and repair the vagrant bootstrap as soon as possible, but in the meantime, you can try running npm install from the project directory -- it looks like the module dependencies didn't get installed properly during the VM initialization. If that fails, please attach the resulting npm-debug.log to this issue.

Here is the npm-debug after running npm install, npm run web from a directory cloned with ac-koa-hipchat-greeter, not from the virtualbox.

I'm sorry, I was wearing my dumb hat that day: The directory was empty. The cloned vm does work, I just needed to install ac-koa, then run npm run web-dev. Please close this ticket.

Ok, thanks for the update!
