Error: Cannot find module 'boom'

[alexander-elgin]

I use karma-phantomjs-launcher to run unit tests on a CI (Shippable) server. In the package.json devDependencies I use "karma-phantomjs-launcher": "^1.0.0". Since Monday (Dec 12th 2016) npm install fails with the following error

> phantomjs-prebuilt@2.1.14 install /home/shippable/workspace/src/github.com/rgi-assessment-tool/node_modules/karma-phantomjs-launcher/node_modules/phantomjs-prebuilt
> node install.js

module.js:340
    throw err;
          ^

No modifications in the package.json was done since the last successful build. If I remove karma-phantomjs-launcher from the dependency list npm install works fine (but obviously the unit tests fail).

@alexander-elgin Thanks for your message first of all!

Seems like the problem is with installing the phantomjs-prebuilt. Still I need some additional information to check why that problem might take place:

• Can you please provide what version of Node.js is used on your CI?
• Can you please provide the whole log for npm install?
• It would also be nice to look at your package.json

@kostkobv Thank you for the prompt response. I use "node":"0.10.48","npm":"2.15.1". Here is the package.json.txt file. You can find the full log on https://app.shippable.com/runs/584e76179559830f0008f0e3/1/console

Hello @kostkobv, is there anything else I can do to help with fixing the issue?

When updating to version 1.0.2, I had a similar problem and error message:

Error: Cannot find module 'boom'

Downgrading to version 1.0.1 solved my problem.
