Ripple emulator - node.js

Question

I can not start emulating the ripple. Here is the error:

ripple emulate could not find cordova as a local module. expecting to find it installed globally 

Cordoba is installed with the following command: npm install cordova

I am working on windows 8.1 64bit

Answer 1

I had the same message, but I understood this not as an error, but as an informational message. ripple can be installed as a global application (c: \ program ...) or in the cordova project directory.
