Strange error (Error: Cannot find module 'semver')

[hebol]

After installing the function in a phonegap v5.3.7 environment with: sudo npm install -g cordova-check-plugins

with the output:

When running: cordova-check-plugins

I get this (for me) strange error:

Error: Cannot find module 'semver'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:336:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:286:25)

Have I missed anything?

I'll have a look at this later. I was "getting around" to fixing the dependency version numbers in the package.json and that may have come back to bite me: may be a dependency issue as it was working OK when I last installed it (a couple of weeks back).

Great! You don't get this quick response for paid services...

may be a dependency issue as it was working OK when I last installed it

Turns out I forgot to add "semver" as a dependency to package.json and didn't notice as I have that module globally installed. v1.0.5 should fix it.

May need to to sudo npm uninstall -g cordova-check-plugins && sudo npm install -g cordova-check-plugins

Let me know if that works or not.

..and there was much rejoicing! Excellent service!

For me it was enough with the command: sudo npm install -g cordova-check-plugins

Still getting an error just different, this happens when I run cordova-check-plugins in the console on Windows:
