Grunt serve: Warning: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined

[mashcode]

This error kills all hope..

Running "browserSync:server" (browserSync) task
Warning: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined Used --force, continuing.

Running "watch" task
Waiting...

Then control-C

Had the same problem - I just manually installed the BrowserSync Grunt plugin.

Command:
$ npm install grunt-browser-sync --save-dev

I was having the same problem (on Windows 8.1 with Node 0.10.36) and @signorekai suggestion worked perfectly for me - thanks!

[signorekai]

Cheers!

Also had this issue (OS X 10.10.2 and Node 0.10.33) and once again @signorekai's suggestion worked perfectly.

Same here. I had to add the browser-sync dependency as @signorekai suggested to make it work.

I'm curious to know why this dependency wasn't added to the package.json of my project.

It's already there in the templates https://github.com/robwierzbowski/generator-jekyllrb/blob/master/app/templates/_package.json#L11

It is odd, but I have no clue as to why it didn't load. The generator did not output any errors either.

Thanks @signorekai ! Reinstalling BrowserSync did it for me.

[kerrongordon]

thanks @signorekai its all working now

[unwiredtech]

Thank you for the tip, got it working!

[siwise]

@signorekai's suggestion didn't solve it for me. Any other ideas? My grunt file is untouched besides changing the proxy.

Using node 0.12.7 on OSX 10.11

EDIT: Sorry, I got it working. For rookies like me, deleting the browser-sync and browser-sync-client folders from node_modules first, before doing @signorekai's suggestion solved it!

Tried both @signorekai and @siwise suggestions, still getting

Warning: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined Use --force to continue.

Aborted due to warnings.

Any other suggestions for kick-starting this grunt over here?
