errors installing npm & bower

[bigara]

Hello,
We are new in most of the technologies used by this theme; Foundation, SASS etc. Our Github first clone too. Anyway, we are aware of the useful new features FoundationPress has inside. So we wanna use it in our last project.

OSX 10.10.1
Node.js, Grunt and Bower correctly installed
Cloning OK

But we have several errors when we run npm install && bower install in Terminal.
We compile the errors in npm.bebug.log by the consola, because the entirely debug is too long to paste here:
204 silly install resolved readme: 'ERROR: No README data found!' } ]
226 warn locking Error: EACCES, open '/Users/bigara/.npm/_locks/grunt-9ed61aa63a337ad3.lock'

227 verbose stack Error: Attempt to unlock /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/bigara/node_modules/grunt, which hasn't been locked
229 error Darwin 14.0.0

232 error npm v2.1.12
233 error Attempt to unlock /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/bigara/node_modules/grunt, which hasn't been locked

The theme looks OK in the browser and we can activate and use it normally.
Our idea is to install the thetrickster´s child them after resolve this errors.
thanks for this great theme and for the help !

Hi,

Just a shot in the dark until the experts come on,but have you added your user to the _www group? and does the _www group have write access to the folders where your files are? _www is the user and group name of MAMP if I remember correctly. Since you're using MAMP, I'm assuming this is a local dev environment and it isn't open to the world, you can also just change the permissions to allow anyone to write in the wp-content folder and see if that fixes it.

Hello. This is a case where you apparently have challenges with users, roles and permissions, and otherwise has nothing to do with this theme.
