Error with 'babel-runtime' while trying to serve a Meteor app

Question

I have recently been getting off the ground with Meteor and React. I followed the tutorial on the Meteor website with no problem.

Then I tried creating another proje

You may have whitespace in your project name. All that you have to do is create another project without whitespace in the name. I know that it's quite difficult to detect the cause from the error message, but it is what it is.

I recently faced this issue with meteor 1.11.1 and the solutions here did not work. Turns out I had whitespaces in my project name (Ghughu Server V2) and all I had to do is create another one without the spaces (GhughuServerV2).

P.S. It works fine even if you have whitespace in the path to your project, you just can't have whitespace in the project name. Also, just renaming the directory doesn't work. Either you have to create a brand new project or change some configuration inside (which seems impractical if you're working in a newly created project).
