Ionic CLI does not work

I installed latest nodejs and ran the command npm install -g cordova ionic.
After that, I started my test app by executing ‘ionic start helloworld tabs’.
The project did not create as expect. There is only one folder ‘ionic-app-base-master’ created. Platform also can not be added as helloworld folder is not recognized as cordova project root.

Can anyone please help.

I got it work now. The problem is with nodejs. I replace 0.12.xx with 0.10.xx which resolve my problem.

I had the same issue.
Ended up finding https://github.com/creationix/nvm so I could change node versions easily.
