package.json file not found on install

[jjr2527]

I received a file not found error referencing a package.json file. After creating the file the errors continue. Should this file be installed by default with default data?

You should update your node and npm installation. I don't know which version of npm node 0.8.17 included, but it might be incompatible with one of the packages you tried to install.
