Error: Cannot find module 'mkdirp'

Solution 1
Use the manual process to install mkdirp:
- Go to https://registry.npmjs.org/mkdirp/latest
- Copy the URL value of the "tarball": key
- Download the tarball
- Expand it under your node_modules path
Use the generalized pattern for the removed packages:
- Go to https://registry.npmjs.org/{module}/latest
- Copy the URL value of the "tarball": key
- Download the tarball
- Expand it under your node_modules path
As an alternative, use the npm install name@version syntax:
npm install mkdirp@latest
Or the npm install git syntax:
npm install git://github.com/substack/node-mkdirp.git

Solution 2
In my case, I was trying to run npm install
from a directory where my user didn't have sufficient permissions. Take a look at those and see if that might be the issue.
