In my case the Node version was the real issue. I downloaded the latest version of Node instead of the one that is "Recommended for Most Users". I removed the the latest version and installed the recommended one and Voila!

My problem is that the dir of 'node-expat' is not completed. Remove it and run npm install node-expat again.
