Have installed nodejs and gulp. the command "node .\node_modules\gulp\bin\gulp.js" gives a similar error...

Any suggestions?

check which version of npm you have (that comes installed with node).

C:\dev\EMS-ESP> node --version
v10.16.0
PS C:\dev\EMS-ESP> npm --version
6.10.2

if you have different versions, remove node and install again. Also go to the webfilesbuilder directory, remove the node_modules folder and npm install again.

Thanks for the quick response. I have nodejs v10.16.3 and npm 6.9.0.
Did an npm install from the webfilesbuilder directory and now it works... Not sure what went wrong, but not complaining. Case closed.

The new web interface is looking good, by the way. Keep up the good work!
