Greetings!  This looks like it may be caused by the maxpath limitation on 
Windows - this happens sometimes with NPM modules that have a lot of nested 
dependencies.  

One fix might be to install NPM 3, which flattens dependencies:

  npm install -g npm@3

Hopefully this fixes things up for you.  Let us know how it goes!

Thanks for yr prompt reply.

Installed npm3, same error.
Changed project location to c:\, and I was able to deploy.

Thanks again.
