Answer 1

Just ran into this error myself when trying to install express via npm. My simple solution was to downgrade node to the stable release. If you have "n", the node version manager, it can be done so with the command:

n stable

Hopefully this helps! I highly recommend "n" if you haven't used it before. It makes life easier :)
