Installing Grunt as in the Bootstrap documentation shown, I first installed grunt-cli
globally with npm install -g grunt-cli
and now I'm trying to execute npm install
, but only getting errors:

I've just copied the project in a non-shared folder and started npm install
again. And it worked. So, it seems to be a shared folder issue. But what exactly? Symlinks are enabled for this shared folder and I started the VM as admin (it helped, when I had similar issues installing Bower).
What is causing these errors and how to solve this problem?
Environment: VirtualBox with Debian guest system and Windows 7 host system.
EDIT
Now (I think after I've successfully executed npm install
in a non-shared folder) I'm geting different errors:
When I start the VM in the common way:

Ok I see the solution
sudo npm cache clean
Then
sudo npm install -g grunt grunt-cli
I did this on MacOS
Make sure your hard drive is not full. That was my case.
Try doing sudo npm cache clean
. But It looks the problem is the path is too long for windows (260byte limit) so you can't share the directory.
I tried using fenestrate but it didn't work out for me. You may also want to check this entry.
