looks like npm is in a different cwd than expected root? unsure if npm has an env var set like $NPM_ROOT that can be used to reliably know where root is.
I am getting this error on 1.1.2

This only appeared on our build servers yesterday so I assume some error has been introduced in a current release
I am having the same issue.

@teerapap since there is a separate issue opened for this I will continue the discussion here. 1.1.2 still gives me the same error message as the users above. However, I am using Travis with Sauce Labs for Selenium, so I do not really need to update webdriver-manager, since I am not using Selenium locally. So 1.1.0 is stable at the moment. The issue goes away if you install protractor globally.
It seems that it's due to these npm issues. https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/2872 https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/5001
The problem occurs if user's module, which has grunt-protractor-runner as dependency, also specifies protractor as dependency. So protractor will not be installed inside grunt-protractor-runner's node_modules but in the same level as grunt-protractor-runner and at the time postinstall step is invoked, protractor hasn't been downloaded/installed yet. So it cannot find the webdriver-manager script. If user's module does not specify protractor as dependency, it works fine.
I decide to move this postinstall hook to pretest hook because npm test requires this webdriver and add FAQ about run the webdriver-manager script manually if user needs it.
Hope it really fixes the problem.
pls upgrade protractor version, they have a fix for it: https://github.com/angular/protractor/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
That updating webdriver fails. Apart from that protractor is 2 versions behind the main repo.
@blacksonic I think it fails because of npm issue not the protractor issue and I specify the protractor version in package.json as "protractor": "^1.0.0". According to https://www.npmjs.org/doc/misc/semver.html, it includes v1.2.0 which is the lastest version of protractor.
