I am having difficulty getting to the bottom of this npm error I am receiving after my npm run build script executes. The error in the terminal is as follows:

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE

npm ERR! errno 2

npm ERR! vincent-site@1.0.0 build: `webpack --mode production`

npm ERR! Exit status 2

npm ERR!

npm ERR! Failed at the vincent-site@1.0.0 build script.

npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. 

There is likely additional logging output above.



npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:

npm ERR!     /Users/vincentcastelli/.npm/_logs/2018-11-10T20_27_41_388Z-debug.

Not very descriptive. I am using the most recent npm version at the time of writing this (6.4.1) and the most recent node (11.1.0). I am also using Babel 7 with Webpack 4 for my compiling. I have tried a few things so far.

I have tried the following steps when using both the recent version of npm/node and older versions:

1. npm cache clean --force


2. delete node_modules by $ rm -rf node_modules folder


3. npm install

Still receiving the error.

My log output:

I feel that the issue stems from a package versioning incompatibility but isolating the issue has been challenging. Thank you in advance for the assistance!

Step 1: $ npm cache clean --force

Step 2: delete node_modules folder

step 3: delete package-lock.json file

Step 4: npm install

To start again, $ npm run start or npm run build

This worked for me. Hopes it works for you.
