Laravel-mix: Exit status 2 on "npm run dev"

[bobbybouwmann]

Hi,

First of all thanks for laravel-mix. However I can't get it to work.

My steps:

1. npm install
2. Updated node and npm to latest versions
3. Update laravel-mix to 0.5.1
4. Updated webpack.mix.js to match the fix branch on the Laravel repo

Every time I run npm run dev I get the below error. Any idea what it could be?

Full stack trace:

What version of Node and NPM do you have installed?

npm ERR! node v7.4.0
npm ERR! npm  v4.1.1

:wink:

Thanks.

I can't reproduce this. Bobby, what does your webpack.mix.js file look like? Have you changed it at all? Are you in a VM here?

[bobbybouwmann]

Thanks for coming back to this. I actually figured out what went wrong... I had bootstrap-sass and bootstrap-4 alpha installed and that gave issues, because it didn't know which bootstrap to pick on the javascript side and that broke stuff.

Anyway thanks for taking a look at this!

i try update node, npm to latest

node v7.9.0
npm  v4.2.0

but not working

and then i added _babel-preset-es2015_ => it working 💃
this command:

npm install --save-dev babel-cli babel-preset-es2015
npm install babel-loader babel-core babel-preset-env webpack --save-dev

I hope, i can help someone!
