Error on first run

Hey, I have error at startup of your app. It's:

module.js:487
    throw err;
    ^
Error: Cannot find module '/home/klemen/.nvm/versions/node/v8.2.1/app.js'

Sorry, I need more information: What OS do you have? Have you installed gtt via npm or yarn? What version of npm/yarn are you using? What command have you typed in exactly?

What have you typed in and what was the output when you tried installing it globally? Did it succeed and running gtt gives you errors? If yes, please post the output here.

Hey, sorry for delay. That was the output when running globally installed one.
When running from source it gave permission denied error for folder creation in src/include/file-config.js. I poked around and deleted permissions when mkdir and then it worked.

But it was lame workaround for me. Here is an error for pemissions

  return binding.mkdir(pathModule._makeLong(path),
                 ^

This looks a lot like you've ran the installation with sudo or a different user or you can't write to your own home directory.

Nevertheless, thanks for the issue: I will improve the error messages in a future release to make it clear, what's going on and what you have to do if you run into permission issues.
