tried installing node-gyp and also cleaning cache, node_modules and running a fresh npm start

even then, i get an error saying module.js:327: throw err;

cannot find module 'mongodb/node_modules/bson'

my package.json file:

{
  "name": "passport-local",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node ./bin/www"
  },

after running the command npm link mongodb and then running npm start, im getting a new error:

This issue started after editing my app.js file:

// dependencies
var express = require('express');
var path = require('path');
var favicon = require('serve-favicon');
var logger = require('morgan');
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var passport = require('passport');
var LocalStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;
var routes = require('./routes/index');
var users = require('./routes/users');
var app = express();
// view engine setup
app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.set('view engine', 'jade');
// uncomment after placing your favicon in /public
//app.use(favicon(__dirname + '/public/favicon.ico'));
app.use(logger('dev'));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(require('express-session')({
    secret: 'keyboard cat',
    resave: false,
    saveUninitialized: false
}));
app.use(passport.initialize());
app.use(passport.session());
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));


app.use('/', routes);

// passport config
var Account = require('./models/account');
passport.use(new LocalStrategy(Account.authenticate()));
passport.serializeUser(Account.serializeUser());
passport.deserializeUser(Account.deserializeUser());

// mongoose
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/passport_local_mongoose_express4');

// catch 404 and forward to error handler
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    var err = new Error('Not Found');
    err.status = 404;
    next(err);
});

// error handlers

// development error handler
// will print stacktrace
if (app.get('env') === 'development') {
    app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
        res.status(err.status || 500);
        res.render('error', {
            message: err.message,
            error: err
        });
    });
}

// production error handler
// no stacktraces leaked to user
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
    res.status(err.status || 500);
    res.render('error', {
        message: err.message,
        error: {}
    });
});

module.exports = app;

also created a new file /models/account.js:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var passportLocalMongoose = require('passport-local-mongoose');

var Account = new Schema({
    username: String,
    password: String
});

Account.plugin(passportLocalMongoose);

module.exports = mongoose.model('Account', Account);

any errors in that?

mongo refuses to start too

$ mongo

Answer 1

The mongoose error might be due to unstable version of mongoose, update "mongoose": "3.8" in package.json. (Followed by npm install ) This might remove mongoose warning.

Check this link for Failed to load c++ extension

Answer 2

Made sure these two packages are at these versions "mongodb": "^2.1.16", "mongoose": "^4.4.12"

And running the below commands with reference to here

npm install node-gyp -g npm cache clean rm -rf node_modules npm install
