Fatal error: spawn ENOENT

Question

Gruntfile.js content:

grunt.initConfig({
        connect: {
            server: {
                options: {
                    port: 5005,
                    base: '.'
                }
            }
        },
        qunit: {
            all: ['test/*.html']
        }
    });

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-connect');
    grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-qunit');

grunt.registerTask('test', ['connect', 'qunit']);

Test/index.html file content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <title>
            Sitejson - QUnit Test Runner
        </title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="libs/qunit/qunit.css" type="text/css">
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="qunit"></div>
        <div id="qunit-fixture"></div>

        <script src="libs/qunit/qunit.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
        <script src="testcases/tests.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    </body>
</html>

tests.js content:

QUnit.test("hello test", function(assert) {
    assert.ok(1 == "1", "Passed!");
});

I am working on Ubuntu / Linux environment. I have also installed Phantomjs and is working fine. Whenever i try to run grunt test I'm receiving a fatal error: spawn ENOENT error.

whereas i try running it on browser its qunit is working fine...

I am not able to identify what the issues. Am i missing some more configuration over here.

grunt test --debug shows me:

Use the following process:

set the tmpdir environment variable:
```
setenv TMPDIR=~/tmp
```
Rerun the grunt task
If it works, set this permanently by adding the following to your .bashrc or .profile:
```
export TMPDIR=~/tmp
```
