I have a branch that solves this issue for me. I did have to install the string module by hand in the meteor-simple-schema; I’ll leave it for @aldeed to diddle with the installation files if necessary.

https://github.com/ssteinerx/meteor-simple-schema/tree/string-fix

Check the string-fix branch out into your packages directory of your app, remove aldeed:simple-schema, then add it again and it will pull the local copy. If something goes wrong, try manually installing the string module with:

npm install string

Then meteor remove/add again.

Please let me know whether this solves your issues and, if so, I’ll submit a pull request.

Thanks,

stringjs dependency will be removed in upcoming release
