Meteor React.js Adding User Accounts Crashes Application

I'm doing the Meteor React.js tutorial part 8 here:

https://www.meteor.com/tutorials/react/adding-user-accounts

My application has been running perfectly up until this point. It crashes the moment I follow the first step in the tutorial which is to add the account packages by running the following command:

meteor add accounts-ui accounts-password

Upon doing this and attempting to run the project, the run fails and give me the following Error log:

C:\Users\Barry\AppData\Local\.meteor\packages\meteor-tool\1.3.2_4\mt-os.windows.x86_32\dev_bundle\server-lib\node_modules\fibers\future.js:245
                        throw(ex);
                              ^

Your application is crashing. Waiting for file change.

What is causing this error to occur and how can I solve it?

There have been 9 (recommended) releases to Meteor since the version that you're using, and a lot of issues have been resolved around using bcrypt specifically. Try updating your app to the latest version of Meteor (via meteor update), remove your applications node_modules directory, and run a new meteor npm install.
