Grunt used to work before, but I have no idea what is going on, I tried to run the Grunt command on my WordPress theme, but it suddenly gave this error

Courses Plus Student 29,322 PointsI finally fixed the issue with this https://gist.github.com/DanHerbert/9520689 It turns out the problem was with Homebrew and NPM

First off, I should say that I don't use grunt, and haven't worked with the command line for awhile now, so...
But, the first error you got seems to be that Grunt couldn't find your project, and from what I read, that could be related to El Capitan new System Integrity Protection (SIP) or "Rootless".
The second error shows that you did uninstall grunt, but it doesn't seem to be re-installed. Are you installing from the command line ( gem install grunt )?
From the little bit of research I did, it could be many things, and it seems that there are more than a few developers cursing right now. Maybe post to or search Stack Overflow, or search through google for a more specific answer.
I'm sorry I couldn't be more help, but I hope you get it resolved soon. :)

Courses Plus Student 29,322 PointsHey there! Thanks for answering. I did the SIP thing Still having some issues, maybe it has something to do with the directory of the gems, because it can’t seem to find my grunt-cli gem!
This is what I did to install grunt:
Haneens-MacBook-Pro:~ HRK$ npm install -g grunt-cli
/usr/local/bin/grunt -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/grunt-cli/bin/grunt
grunt-cli@0.1.13 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/grunt-cli
├── resolve@0.3.1
├── nopt@1.0.10 (abbrev@1.0.7)
└── findup-sync@0.1.3 (lodash@2.4.2, glob@3.2.11)
This is what I get when I run a grunt command
/Users/HRK/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.1/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.2.0/rubygems/dependency.rb:315:in `to_specs': Could not find 'grunt' (>= 0) among 24 total gem(s) (Gem::LoadError)

Please help!

Treehouse TeacherI know this is a different error than you are posting, but the solution provided seems like it might still help because your error appears to be related to your paths somehow. Check out this solution on StackOverflow and see if you can determine anything incorrect in your own bash_profile: http://stackoverflow.com/a/12575463/475217
