 Your environment has been set up for using Node.js 0.10.33 (ia32) and npm.

Android Emulator is running on AVD Control.

UPDATE I fixed it by add in the system variable the bin folder of mysql server, now the output log just return:

This looks like it occurs when you already have mySql installed on the box.

I fixed by adding quotes around the following MySql items in the path. Be sure and restart VS once you've made the path changes.

...;"C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5.2 & MySQL Utilities 1.5.2 1.5"\;"C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Fabric 1.5.2 & MySQL Utilities 1.5.2 1.5\Doctrine extensions for PHP\";...

I also added a user with the name of ODBC to mySql with a blank password... prolly not wise, but this is my personal dev box.

I've solved by removing doing what Jim says and also removing C:\Users\Miquel\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\vs-mda\node_modules\*.* and C:\Users\Miquel\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\*.*

Then in cmd I went to C:\Users\Miquel\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\vs-mda and ran:

npm install
