See Gulp Sass with errLogToConsole: true still stopping my other watch tasks and Gulp-generated source maps don't work in Chrome.

Don't use errLogToConsole it doesn't appear to be supported anymore.

.pipe(sass(errLogToConsole: true, outputStyle: 'compressed'))

Change that to

.pipe(sass({outputStyle: 'compressed'}).on('error', sass.logError))

as in gulp-sass options. Your earlier error was probably due to not including your options in {} braces (it is an object).

[EDIT] :

And your other error is the same

.pipe(autoprefixer(browsers: ['last 2 versions', '> 5%', 'Firefox ESR']))

should be

.pipe(autoprefixer( { browsers: ['last 2 versions', '> 5%', 'Firefox ESR'] } ))

Note the curly braces. Usually the options to gulp plugins are objects so they need to be wrapped in braces {}.
