Bower install fails #44
Description
Activity
Also, 2.0.3 seems to install correctly
Thanks, @mikkotikkanen. The
package.jsonfile is valid JSON, but it may not be a validbower.json.Hmm, seems to work fine in OS X locally:
$ bower install hideshowpassword bower cached https://github.com/cloudfour/hideShowPassword.git#2.0.10 bower validate 2.0.10 against https://github.com/cloudfour/hideShowPassword.git#* bower cached https://github.com/jquery/jquery-dist.git#2.2.3 bower validate 2.2.3 against https://github.com/jquery/jquery-dist.git#>=1.11 bower install hideshowpassword#2.0.10 bower install jquery#2.2.3 hideshowpassword#2.0.10 bower_components/hideshowpassword └── jquery#2.2.3 jquery#2.2.3 bower_components/jqueryWill attempt to troubleshoot on Windows.
Verified on Windows.
The issue seems to be with the symlink. See: yeoman/yeoman#751
Solution may be to just remove
bower.jsonfile entirely. More research needed, as our team no longer uses Bower.- added a commit that references this issue
on Apr 19, 2016 @mikkotikkanen Thanks for reporting the issue! Should be fixed in
v2.0.11(just merged).

At least at Windows machines (haven't tested with others OS, but with multiple Windows machines), the bower install fails as bower.json seems to be a symbolic link with "package.json" text within it. The symbolic link seems to break down for some reason and since the "package.json" isn't exactly valid JSON, the install aborts.
