title: NPM node-sass error in Laravel v5.6.26 - Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir '**/node_modules/node-sass/vendor'
body: <p>Encountered this exact error on my production server: <a href="https://github.com/sass/node-sass/issues/1579" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/sass/node-sass/issues/1579</a></p>
  
  <p><strong>My production server:</strong><br>
  Ubuntu 17.10 x64<br>
  nginx/1.12.1<br>
  PHP 7.1.17<br>
  node v6.11.4<br>
  Laravel 5.6.26<br>
  npm 3.5.2<br>
  node-sass: 4.9.1</p>
  
  <p>Have the same codebase running without a problem locally on a Homestead box. However, getting this fatal error on my production server. I have tried destroying &amp; rebuilding the node_modules directory, also the suggested commands below. </p>
  
  <p><code>npm update</code><br>
  <code>npm install</code><br>
  <code>nodejs node_modules/node-sass/scripts/install.js</code><br>
  <code>npm rebuild node-sass</code></p>
  
  <p>I also tried to rollback to a 'node-sass' package to a version that didn't include a vendor directory, to no avail.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas for a fix of this package? Or would it be better to switch to another sass compiler without issues?</p>
