The “data-main” attribute is missing here, see below.

Configuration of paths is unnecessary in this case (so is writing the “.js” 
suffix).  However, the unnecessary configuration could be erroneous.

I do not think any of this is going to help much.  The OP appears to have 
confused Node.js modules (as indicated by the “module.exports”) with
CommonJS’s Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD) modules.

RequireJS explicitly supports only the latter approach, and it says so in 
the documentation.  That is why it complains that no such module has been 
loaded – there is *no* module that it can load.

<http://requirejs.org/docs/start.html#add>
<http://requirejs.org/docs/whyamd.html#definition>

That said, this newsgroup is _not_ the RequireJS support.
