Next.js: Cannot find module 'webpack/lib/RequestShortener'

I updated to latest beta (16) and received error Error: Cannot find module 'webpack/lib/RequestShortener'.

rm -rf node_modules && npm i didn't fixed this.

npm install [email protected] worked. But I was already using 3.5.6, and now it's still 3.5.6 when I type webpack -v. Why did I have to install 2.5.1 ?

Solved for webpack@^3.6.0 by manually installing webpack as a dev dependency

npm i --save-dev webpack

Hope that'll help if anyone encounter the same issue in the future.

if you update package don't forget to remove package-lock.json then run rm -rf node_modules && npm i

I get this issue when I run npm install with NODE_ENV=production (don't ask, has to be that way). I shouldn't need to install webpack, since it's already there. Meaning: after install in "production mode", next build fails with that error.

I'll open this as a new issue, because it's a bug IMHO.

@QuantumInformation try deleting package-lock.json and node_modules dir, npm install, npm run build to see if that happens again? Fixed my create-react-app project that way.

I'm getting this bug in a fresh create-react-app install. I get the error listed in the issue as well as dependency failures everywhere:

npm WARN [email protected] requires a peer of typescript@^3.2.1 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
07:14:23 PM | npm WARN @typescript-eslint/[email protected] requires a peer of eslint@^5.0.0 \|\| ^6.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
07:14:23 PM | npm WARN @typescript-eslint/[email protected] requires a peer of eslint@^5.0.0 \|\| ^6.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
......

I've tried everything listed above and no luck. Anyone else still running into issues?
