Gulp not working with new install of laravel

What version of node are you using and have you installed gulp?

Did you run npm install from your project root?

Hey, I was using the latest version of node, and had problems... now I'm using stable version again.

I ran npm install gulp -g again after install, and the gulp from my root and now i get following error...

(and I've ran npm install from root)

[16:45:16] Using gulpfile P:\Code\PHP\Domains\tonyspizzeria.uk\gulpfile.js

This usually happens because your node version has changed.
Run `npm rebuild node-sass` to build the binding for your current node version.

Did you run npm rebuild node-sass as per the error?

Some packages are tied to node version you are running, if it's changed, they should be rebuilt.

npm rebuild node-sass

@jimmyhowe How did you start your new installation of laravel? I just tried one and it works! can you try to remove your node_modules folder and run npm install

 //check versions
npm -v
node -v
gulp -version

Here are mine:

OSX 10.11
Laravel Framework version 5.1.24 (LTS)
npm -v 
3.3.6
node -v 
v5.0.0
gulp -version
CLI version 3.9.0

Say @jimmyhowe, what's the recommended version for mine?

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Laravel Framework version 5.2.27

My current version is:

npm -v
3.8.3
node -v
v0.10.43
gulp -version
[17:18:41] CLI version 1.2.1
[17:18:41] Local version 3.9.1

What should be the recommended version using my current Distro and Laravel Framework?

Hey, @LarryMarzanJr this was a while ago... I'm not too sure about node/npm versions... Maybe @mehany could help?

Yeah @jimmyhowe I already figured this version works for me:

npm -v
3.6.0
node -v
v5.7.0
gulp -version
[02:12:38] CLI version 3.9.1
[02:12:38] Local version 3.9.1

Thanks.

Well, I ended up using homestead :) all-in-one recommended version.

v0.10.43

That's a really old version of node!

I always recommend people use nvm so that they can easily switch between active node versions.

I am also trying to run gulp in my virtual machine. I am using windows 8.1 for my virtual machine. This is the current version installed for my project

vagrant@homestead:~/sites/laravel5$ php artisan --version
Laravel Framework version 5.2.22
vagrant@homestead:~/sites/laravel5$ npm -v
3.8.3
vagrant@homestead:~/sites/laravel5$ node -v
v5.10.1
vagrant@homestead:~/sites/laravel5$ gulp -v
[06:33:48] CLI version 3.9.1
[06:33:48] Local version 3.9.1

When i execute gulp command it prompts me with:

module.js:341
    throw err;
    ^
Error: Cannot find module 'laravel-elixir'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:339:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:290:25)

When i run npm install command, it creates node_modules folder. Please let me know
