Unhandled Error Event

Whenever I try to run lite-server an error gets thrown.

Bug repro steps

1. npm install -g lite-server
2. lite-server --version

Did not detect a `bs-config.json` or `bs-config.js` override file. Using lite-server defaults...
** browser-sync config **
{ injectChanges: false,
  files: [ './**/*.{html,htm,css,js}' ],
  watchOptions: { ignored: 'node_modules' },
  server: { baseDir: './', middleware: [ [Function], [Function] ] } }

      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Environment

• lite-server version: probably 2.2.2
• nodejs version: 6.3.0
• npm version: 3.10.5
• OS type/version: Linux/Archlinux updated today

Hm, I was able to clean up stuff with npm ls -gp --depth=0 | awk -F/ '/node_modules/ && !/\/npm$/ {print $NF}' | xargs npm -g rm and reinstalling npm and semver via my package manager. Might be a bit brutal but now installing it as a local package:

git clone  https://github.com/angular/quickstart  my-proj
cd my-proj
npm install

lasse@lssteady ~/prog/django-gitmate/angular_test (git)-[master] % npm run lite-server -v
3.10.5
lasse@lssteady ~/prog/django-gitmate/angular_test (git)-[master] % npm run lite -v
3.10.5

which is interesting since the latest version should be 2.2.2, right?

Also running the server still doesn't work: http://pastebin.com/w3nk1LV8

I have the same problem, lite-server is install local save-dev and global.
