I am having problems after doing a npm install.

Interesting, I just ran an npm install with this package.json file and everything seems to be working. The repo could have possibly been down, try running it again and see what it tells you. :)

[nuthankumarns]

Tried npm install again., couldn't suceed...

node version -v0.6.12
npm version -1.1.4

Do I have to downgrade?

[patrickocoffeyo]

I'm running Node v0.11.5-pre, and npm 1.3.4. I tested down to the latest stable releases (Node v0.10.25 and npm 1.3.26).

Perhaps try upgrading node and npm?

npm update npm -g

If you need that specific version of node for a project, you can use the n module

sudo npm install n -g
sudo n stable //use latest stable release of node

That will allow you to use the current stable version of node, and switch to an older version if you need too by just running sudo n versionnumber.

@gatomalo See the comment directly above yours. I think there may be bugs with some of the package dependencies that BootstrapBlocks has with node < 0.10.0 and older versions of npm.

Perhaps try upgrading node and npm?

npm update npm -g

If you need that specific version of node for a project, you can use the n module

npm install n -g
n stable //use latest stable release of node

That will allow you to use the current stable version of node, and switch to an older version if you need too by just running n versionnumber.
