I have tried using npm downgrading npm to 5.6 and still get thesame result
thanks for your help
Looks like cross-env wasn't found. There may be more additional data in your log /home/vagrant/.npm/_logs/2018-12-07T23_34_26_478Z-debug.log
Run these commands..
rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json yarn.lock
npm cache clear --force
npm install cross-env
npm install
That should solve the problem. If not there's a Laravel Mix thread here that may help https://github.com/JeffreyWay/laravel-mix/issues/478
this is what i get when i run npm install cross-env
vagrant@homestead:~/Sites/success_techmax$ npm install cross-env
