After running yo angular
and then cd
'ing into the application's root folder (at same level as the app folder, gruntfile
, package.json
etc) I try grunt serve
and I get the above error. Grunt won't start a server for me.
I have searched all over but couldn't find say to run npm install
and bower install
within the application's root directory, which I have tried but still the same error.
I've updated and checked bower/grunt/npm and they're all good.
Any suggestions please?
I think I have found a solution!

Running sudo on all the installs causes issues on the NPM folder in the home directory. I needed to change permissions of all usr/local folders by running:
sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local
sudo chown -R `whoami` ~/.npm
npm install -g yo grunt-cli bower
Now I go through the process again and no more errors!
The above link also seems to be pulled together from a bunch of answers at
npm throws error without sudo
The Gruntfile.js
is not present under app
directory but the root directory, i.e. parent
of the app
directory.
You must run the grunt serve
form the root directory, i.e. parent
of the app
directory.
I encountered similar error with "task --- not found" message.
I tried bitfidget's solution, but it couldn't help. It seemed to be different problem.
I updated yo and grunt-cli module like this:
npm update -g yo
npm update -g grunt-cli
and re-created whole project by "yo" command.
This solved the problem.
I hope this can be help for anyone.
