As @TopVitamin mentioned, run npm install instead.

@lucoxlee
It is recommended to delete all the folders and try again.
Can you solve this issue as follow ?

# hexo -v
# node -v
# cd ~/soft
# ls
# rm -rf blog
# hexo init blog
# cd blog
# ls
# npm install
# hexo s

How is the command screen displayed ?

@lucoxlee Could you please try to clone the repo https://github.com/hexojs/hexo-starter , then run npm install inside the folder?

[lucoxlee]

@lucoxlee can we close this issue out?

I know this has already been closed but I just want to add a small info for future users that stumble on this. This can also be caused by not having GIT installed on your PC.

[imleoo]

did you not install git in your PC? I have this error too ,but before install git ,it's ok.
