Answer 1

I'm working with OS Windows 8.1 and I had the same problem. The source of the problem was the version of Python. I found the origin problem review the file ...\node_modules\mongodb\node_modules\mongodb-core\node_modules\kerberos\builderror.log.

I installed the correct version of Python (2.7.9 for 64 bits) and it resolved my problem.

Note: The installed version of python must be equal or greater than 2.7.5 and less than 3.0.0
