      I just upgraded to the latest version, and most of my modules are broken, specifically any module that uses a node_helper. It looks like messages from the modules are reaching the helper, but no responses are coming back to the client.

      I tried re-cloning the MM repo and copying over the config/modules with a fresh npm install, but it produces the same result. I feel like I’m missing something basic here, but I’m not sure what else to check.

        @mikebishop after updating you have to go into each module and run npm install for each module that has a package.json. You problem is probably related to modules that use deprecated modules like request and a few others.

        This this post for more details.
