Error when attempting to run through command line or gulp

I am receiving the following error when attempting to run bower-license in my directory which contains my bower_components and my bower.json file:

C:\Users\fangiot\Documents\Development\Moodys\ERSUI\component>bower-license

Any thoughts on how I might fix this?

In the gulp task, I have tried pointing it at both the base directory and the bower.json file to see if that helps, but I get similar errors.

Thanks!

I just reverified and it seems to work for me

Can you list your dependencies in package.json? What version of node are you using?

I get a similar error. It fails for e.g. sjcl (https://github.com/bitwiseshiftleft/sjcl), which has a README directory with the licenses inside of it. A simple fix is

if (potentialFilenames[i].toLowerCase() === files[j].toLowerCase() &&
    !fs.statSync(path.resolve(packagePath, files[j])).isDirectory()) {

but this does not find the licenses in the directory.

@badunk So sorry for the extreme delay; I never saw your response and I am no longer on that project, so I honestly don't remember what the issue was and if we ever worked around it.
