### Common Problems
If you are unable to install npm dependencies or run the application, make sure of the following things:
* If you are running on Windows, move the project directory as far up the directory tree as possible. `npm install` tends to run into the
file path limit on Windows (260 characters), because it creates a relatively deep file structure.
Or, you can tell Windows to support longer paths - see [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx), section **Maximum Path Length Limitation**.
* If `npm install` fails with errors on _Unmet peer dependencies_, make sure you are running npm at least version 3, which no longer treats missing peer dependencies as error.
* Make sure sufficient rights are set both on the project directory and on the directory of the Tomcat server, which is used to deploy your application.
* Make sure there are no spaces in paths to both your project and the Tomcat. Especially on Windows, where Tomcat is often installed into `Program Files`.
