Seems like you you should remove your vendor and node_modules directories and do the installs again because it would seem like something did not install properly. I would start with the node_modules.

Strange "Cannot find module 'shebang-command'" Error on npm run dev
Hi,
I just set up new Ubuntu 18.04 and cloned my previously working project from repo.
composer install, npm install all went fine
But during npm run dev I am getting this error:
> @ dev /var/www/html/myblog
> npm run development
> @ development /var/www/html/myblog
> cross-env NODE_ENV=development node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js --progress --hide-modules --config=node_modules/laravel-mix/setup/webpack.config.js
module.js:549
throw err;
^

In my other machine it is working perfectly fine.
Any suggestion on this?
Thanks!

Finally I figured this out.
Its because I don't have libpng-dev installed on my fresh installation of Ubuntu.
This is required by pngquant-bin, which is required by laravel-mix. This somehow disturbed the installation of shebang-command and laravel-mix.
Solution:
$sudo apt install ligpng-dev
And on laravel project
$ rm -rf node_modules
$ npm cache clear
$ npm install
$ npm run dev
Solved!
