Hi,

module.js:338 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module 'end-of-stream'

for "gulp build"

Do you have gulp installed globally? (npm install gulp -g or npm update gulp -g)

To see a list of installed packages:

$ npm ls --depth=0               # or, `npm ls -g --depth=0` for global npm modules

Which prints:

$ npm ls --depth=0

Hmm. Yes, I did. Repeated it right now. As you can see, it is not in the list after installation

I have a problem with gulp as well (gulp-webpack problem I guess):

Any suggestions?

[koistya]

It seems like webpack wasn't properly installed. Maybe you can try reinstall it and see if there are any errors?

$ npm uninstall webpack
$ npm install

Edit

Sorry, it seems that some modules were not properly installed. So I needed to use npm install [missing module]. :+1:

Hello, I'm getting a similar error:

npm start

> babel-node --eval "require('./tools/start')().catch(err => console.error(err.stack))"

module.js:338
    throw err;

This is happening on Linux server, but the same  fresh install is working on my Windows 7 machine. Do you know if I missing something?

In regards to the comment from @ichbinedgar - I too got an Cannot find module 'browser-sync' error.

In a Windows 10 environment I tried npm install browser-sync from a regular command prompt and it failed with an error code from node-gyp. However, starting a new prompt with Administrative privileges worked.

gulp dependency was removed from this project in favor JavaScript-based automation scripts. See You might not need Gulp.js blog post and tools folder.
