I had same problem. I my case helped this: npm install -g yo
For me this is also happening with other node apps as well (eg. grunt and gulp).
Reinstalling it does the trick. In this case you have to reinstall generator-webapp (npm install -g generator-webapp). If after reinstalling generator you get the same message than reinstall yeoman as levon suggested.

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

You need to create a configuration file for the environment you are using. You can either create a development.js file manually in the config directory, or copy config/example.js to config/development.js and edit it appropriately.

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 throwing an error on ansi module

I'm looking to check out Mike Bostock's Rivers, but I'm running into an error with Node.js. npm install gives me:

Any pointers? Or, any previous questions I missed that might point to a solution?
If you run on RH CentOS of Fedore reinstall
yum reinstall nodejs-ansi.noarch
This fixed my similar issue
You can run:
npm install ansi -g
to make ansi available globally (you may have to use sudo)
