I am getting exactly the same symptoms as: Answered problem here
However, I have followed the instructions and downgraded node.
node --version
Gives: 11.15.0.
gulp -v
Was showing: CLI version: 2.3.0 Local version: 3.9.1
Having read the linked article Gulp 3 is broken on Node 12 #2324 and seen that gulp 3 is no longer supported I uninstalled the local Gulp using:
npm uninstall gulp
and reinstalled it in the project folder:
npm install gulp --save-dev
It now says:
CLI version: 2.3.0 Local version: 4.0.2
Lastly if it is relevant: npm -v
gives: 6.14.8
I am still seeing the issue same primordial issue.
The package.json is exactly the same as the whole team's.
I ran npm install and bower install in the project folder as per our project setup instructions.
