Kibana4 and module 'jade' fail

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

On first run Kibana 4.1.0 i got error:
"Error: Cannot find module 'jade'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15)
at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25)
at Module.require (module.js:364:17)"
... skiped ...

As a result is necessary to:
yum install npm
and
npm install jade

Why you don't add it in you tar ?

Jade isn't required for the server to run, and because of that isn't included. Can you describe how you are running Kibana 4.1.0?

I'm running into this as well where I upgraded from 4.0.2 to 4.1 and it crashes every once in a while with something like this:

In fact, you have confirmed my subject and the way of solutions.

Okay, confirmed this is an issue and just published 4.1.1 to correct it. Thanks for reporting @vassav!
