Semantic-ui: gulp build not building CSS

[ALCC01]

First time building Semantic UI, I noticed that gulp build executed and exited successfully, but it did not build CSS files, so I ran another time the single task (gulp build-css). Not even this time the build was successful.

$ gulp build-css

I find same issue and a way to solve it: https://github.com/Semantic-Org/Semantic-UI/issues/2971

I have not errors on my screen but css files are not served, using npm 3.3.12 , nodejs 5.3.0, gulp 3.9.0, semantic-ui version 2.1.7.

Installing [email protected] fixed it

resolved. old Node was causing the problem. use NVM

@antsav Using NVM is the best solution.
Thanks!!!!

I tried with node v4.4.7 and v5.10.0 and I still cant get the css files to build.

UPDATE: nvm. I didn't put my theme in the appropriate location under semantic/src/themes

Not generating css, no errors displayed

Versions:

semantic-ui: 2.2.13
npm: 5.5.1
node: 9.3.0 (also tried with 8.4.0)
gulp CLI: 1.2.1
gulp: 3.9.1
ubuntu: 4.4.0-104-generic

It didn't work in my existing project, so I created a wholly clean project with semanti-ui only. Nope.
I tried the gulp-autoprefixer workaround, and moving the semantic.json to /semantic. Same results.

UPDATE This fixed it for me: https://github.com/Semantic-Org/Semantic-UI/issues/6067
