Thanks for reporting, I'm going to investigate :)

[fredj]

@misterdev I've created a minimal project to reproduce the issue: https://github.com/fredj/webpack-atime
It can only be reproduced on Mondays :smile:

[Ignacas]

For me, the same issue appeared yesterday (2019.05.06 Monday). And today I don't get any error, everything builds fine after I have done nothing, it is really strange.

[evenstensberg]

Update to the latest version

[pastak]

I also have faced same issue on 2019.05.06 Monday with webpack 3.3.2

[evenstensberg]

1.remove webpack-cli from your pkg json

1. rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json && npm install && npm install --save-dev webpack-cli

[pastak]

In my environment, It looks that checking node process have file write permission is not enough. I try to fix this problem to solve https://github.com/webpack/webpack-cli/pull/935

[evenstensberg]

Great, thanks for explaining. Nice PR btw

[Tarasovych]

Same issue here, webpack-cli 3.3.2 (with laravel-mix).

[misterdev]

@Tarasovych, you should try updating to the most recent version, v3.3.3 at the moment :)
