Error: cannot find module './lib/middleware' - node.js

I am attempting to run the demo for the mobwrite node.js package. First I installed the mobwrite package (npm install mobwrite) and then entered the following command:
node -e "require('mobwrite').quickserve()"
A demo server should start, but the following error is thrown:
module.js:340
throw err;

This originates from the mobwrite.js file, in which the package needs to include a middleware file (middleware.coffee) which is stored in a lib folder:
require("coffee-script")
middleware = require("./lib/middleware")
module.exports = middleware
I have looked at the answers to similar posts on SO, but nothing has solved my problem so far. How can I overcome this error?

You could try manually compiling the coffeescript files to javascript: npm install -g coffee-script && coffee -c node_modules/mobwrite/lib/middleware.coffee && coffee -c node_modules/mobwrite/lib/daemon.coffee. Then retry your command.

You are probably forgetting about installing the dependencies. Try to install the dependencies using bower before running grunt.
Try to run this:bower install.

i tried installing one, but the other comes up, and this is continuous. Is there something which can be done to this, i tried doing this
npm install -g emitter,
it prints the path where it is present but it is not solving the issue.What could be the solution to this.
Thanks,
You probably want:
var Emitter = require('events').EventEmitter in your code
or
npm install emitter from the commandline.
I don't know why you're trying to install indexof, the error is about emitter.

As #SteveBirkner already mentioned, delete the node_modules directory and run npm install command again. It should work.
I had the same problem, and in the end of the log I was receiving such a message:
...
http 200 http://registry.npmjs.org/-/all
Killed
The problem was the lack of enough memory in my VM. One solution was to use swap is mentioned here.

Node not requiring *.coffee files

According, to https://stackoverflow.com/a/4769079/347915, I should be able to require a .coffee file from a .js file:
$ echo 'console.log "works"' > module.coffee
$ echo '
> require("coffee-script")
> require("./module")
> ' > test.js
$ node test.js
works
However, when I do that, I get this message when running test.js:

I'm using Node 0.10.25 installed using NVM. Also using CoffeeScript 1.7.1 installed using NPM 1.3.24.
Since Coffeescript 1.7.0, the required library changed. Now you have to use:
require('coffee-script/register');
See the changelog: http://coffeescript.org/

Cannot run express-spdy app using NodeJS

I'm not able to run NodeJS Express-Spdy examples downloaded from GitHub.
I'm getting the below error:

module.js:340
throw err;

Please tell me how to resolve this error, as I have put express-spdy inside node_modules folder.
When I run the example using SPDY module only by placing it inside node_modules it works fine but with express-spdy module it shows above error.
