sh: 1: cross-env: Permission denied on laravel mix

Question

I\'m trying to run npm run dev but the following error occur:

sh: 1: cross-env: Permission denied
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 126
npm ER         


        

Answer 1

This is because of permission issues with global installation of packages, which npm is being denied access.

To solve this try

1.

npm rebuild

npm run watch

Or 2

rm -Rf node_modules

npm install

npm run watch

Hope it works.
