missing bower_components folder after bower install

Question

In a personnal project, I ran this morning npm install && bower install after a svn checkout.

All packages seem downloaded and installed with no errors, all fires are green.

But after install, the bower_components folder still missing.

I tested a bower cache clean but it had no effect. Also I updated my bower version # npm -g update bower, but it had no more effect.

Any idea ?

Here is the bower install output :

Do you have a .bowerrc file where the directory is set to anything else than /bower_components? – Silverpoint

@Silverpoint No I don't have a .bowerrc file. – Adherence

Can you post the bower install log? – Deify

Just to be sure: do you have a .bowerrc file in your home folder or in a parent folder of the current working directory? The config is obtained from a variety of locations, see: bower.io/docs/config/#placement--order – Dicephalous

@drorb oh I just see the last line (ENOTFOUND) and removed the package from the bower.json. Now its okay. The process didn't run at the end, but now its ok. thank you ! – Adherence

Answer 1

Solved.

the last line of the bower install output :

bower bootstrap-sass#~3.0.2               ENOTFOUND Package bootstrap-sass not found

caused the exit of the script.

After removed it, its working.
