- configuration.output.path: The provided value “public” is not an absolute path! with Webpack

Question

I\'m using Laravel Mix, that is based on WebPack.

I had it working, and now, it fails with:

Invalid configuration object. Webpack has been initialised us         


        

Answer 1

Lock webpack to 2.2.1 in composer.json

"devDependencies": {
    ...
    "webpack": "2.2.1",
    "laravel-mix": "^0.8.1",
    ...
}
