By searching I found out that it is .copy() function issue in gulpfile.js and I need to move them to storage/app/public but here I don't think that will be an option.

Stackoverflow answer Stackoverflow solution Something like this : removing these lines from gulpfile.js:

.copy('resources/assets/fonts', 'public/build/fonts') .copy('resources/assets/images', 'public/build/images')

placing the fonts and images folders into the storage/app/public running PHP artisan storage:link

changing the paths in the assets files to the new directory

running gulp

Thanks @kumarravisingh for this To make sure I got what you mean: the problem only happens with any file type that isn't a JS, HTML or CSS right? So that's why the problem is for fonts and images And the reason why they must be in build is to maintain the same paths? or can't they be fixed by just using absolute paths /images/.. and /fonts/..?

Oh. .sry for bad explanation :( All I know is there is an error whenever I run gulp && gulp watch which seems like a versioning issue.

stream.js:74 throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe. ^ Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat 'C:\laragon\www\cms\public\build\js\final-393dd5527e.js' at Error (native)

and I can't solve it.

Also, there is no issue with version : 3.2, it is occurring in version 3.4 only.

I'm facing the same issue on windows, seems it because versioning in my case have manually running gulp till the versioning filename get change then running gulp watch

Thanks @albertgultom for the temporary fix Let's keep it open and hope for a fix in upstream

Sorry to bump an old issue, but the link to the fix for this is gone. Any idea what it was? Seeing the same versioning issue

[jadjoubran]

Hi @wardcraigj so this fix did not work for you?
