It seems it has been introduced in 2.9.4.

Here is the diff between 2.9.3 and 2.9.4: https://github.com/vuejs/vue-cli/compare/0c94809c7b63431b800f2bb2815f515a09257878...3774d25895584badeb9f9d5caede57e69465fa85.

I solved the problem downgrading the version of vue-cli to [email protected]

  A newer version of vue-cli is available.

  latest:    2.9.4
  installed: 2.9.3

? Project description my first proyect whit nuxt

     npm install # Or yarn

seems should use command vue-init like vue-init mpvue/mpvue-quickstart my-project

[fidejade]

看不懂大家都在聊啥....

[peanut-cream]

at global variable environmental,we should use 'npm i [email protected] -g'.and then,we can vue init webpack XXX to use vue-cli

[limuxy]

same problem here with 2.9.4
using vue-init instead works at the time being

[deniszavadskiy]

It is a patch update!
@yyx990803, does it should contain breaking changes?

[Akryum]

This wasn't intended as a breaking change. It's an issue which wasn't foreseen and should be resolved soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
