Answer 1

Install it locally rather installing it globally. Then your project may be run on any machine without any error.I think its better.

npm install express --save
npm install ejs --save

Answer 2

I have the same issue it resolve after installing the express in my project directory. previously i install it in global scope with -g option with npm install command.

Answer 3

I face same error for ejs, then i just run node install ejs This will install ejs again.

and then also run npm install to install node_modules again. That's work for me.

Answer 4

Reinstalling npm, express and ejs fixed my problem

This one worked for me,

1. On your terminal or cmd -> Go to your apps directory,
2. cd pathtoyourapp/AppName
3. rerun your 'npm install'
4. rerun your 'npm install express'
5. rerun your 'npm install ejs'

after that, the error was fixed.

Answer 5

I installed ejs using command npm install ejs in express directory level and this solved my problem.

i have install express using steps mention in express guide http://expressjs.com/guide.html

Answer 6

I installed both: express and ejs with the option --save:

npm install ejs --save npm install express --save

This way express and ejs are dependecies package.json file.
