Error when running gulp command

[JayWIlsonJr]

After a fresh install, when I run the gulp command I get the follow error message:

$ ~/code/test-app: gulp

I am not seeing a bower_components folder which it is looking for?

Thanks

try running bower install manually in your project. At some point there should have been a bower install

[JayWIlsonJr]

When I run bower install it just returns me back to a empty prompt. There is no message output, or files created.

$ bower install
bower                     invalid-meta The "name" is recommended to be lowercase, can contain digits, dots, dashes
$ subl .
$ bower install
$

As you can see above on the initial run it tells me the name needs to be lowercase, so I changed the name to all lowercase in the bower.json file. After that I ran bower install again, but it just drops me back to a empty prompt.

Here's the contents of my bower.json file:

{
    "name": "test",
    "author": "Jay Wilson Jr. <jwilson@xxx.com>",
    "private": "true",
    "devDependencies": {},
    "dependencies": {
      "angular": "~1.4.8",
      "ngCordova": "~0.1.23-alpha",
      "angular-resource": "~1.4.8",
      "ionic": "~1.2.1"
    },
    "resolutions": {
    "angular": "1.4.8"
  }
}

I just npm installed the generator ans started a fresh project. after the npm install finishes it tries to automatically install bower deps. you should see some similar output:

can you try starting over in a fresh project? it should also create a bower_components folder in the project root. if it does not, please add more info, like you node / npm versions, OS etc.
