Occassional Unknown provider: $ templateRequestProvider <- $ templateRequest <- $ route <- ngViewDirective error

I am working on an angular app and it works fine on machine # 1, and when I cloned the repo on <2> 2> and executed mine npm install

, bower install

and grunt bower-install

, things are not loading.

After you navigated to the site, many pointed out that this is a common side effect of the ng route not being included.

When the page loads, a "view source" is displayed showing that ng-route was enabled successfully:

<!-- build:js(app) scripts/vendor.js -->
<!-- bower:js -->
<script src="bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular/angular.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-resource/angular-resource.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-cookies/angular-cookies.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-sanitize/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/Chart.js/Chart.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-chart.js/dist/angular-chart.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/d3/d3.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/codemirror/lib/codemirror.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-ui-codemirror/ui-codemirror.js"></script>
<!-- endbower -->
<!-- endbuild -->

      

        
        
        
      

    

And my app.js file is definitely asking for ngRoute

:

angular.module('myApp', [
  'ngCookies',
  'ngResource',
  'ngSanitize',
  'ngRoute',
  'chart.js',
  'ui.bootstrap',
  'ui.codemirror'
])

      

        
        
        
      

    

and my routes are defined like this:

$routeProvider.when('/dashboard', {
  templateUrl: 'partials/dashboard',
  controller: 'DashboardCtrl'
})

      

        
        
        
      

    

Then I verified that these dependencies were actually loaded:

^ - which seems to be "yes", they loaded. I clicked them to make sure the answers are actually the correct javascript content. Each contains the correct content.

In terms of resource version angular-route.js

• work site uses route v1.3.14
• Broken site uses route v1.3.15

The error message in the console doesn't seem to be of any use in terms of determining why this is happening. How do I debug this?
