error running when running php artisan build:dev

[Dave3of5]

[ErrorException] file_get_contents(/home/ubuntu/workspace/resources/assets/frontend/dist/index.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

PHP 5.6.30

[gazben]

This happens, when the webpack build fails. Did any other error message turn up during the execution?

[Dave3of5]

Sorry yes a few:

php artisan build:install

Hi,

Try upgrading your node and npm.

[Dave3of5]

To what version you don't say a minimum version anywhere?

[gazben]

Delete the resources/assets/frontend/node_modules folder, and try it with the latest node version (7.x) it should work.
The minimum version stated in the vue-admin package is 4.0 but I don't think thats enough.
