All i'm trying to do is npm install command inside fresh installed Laravel app, but i keep getting errors.
After googling for two days and trying everything i found as a possible solution for npm install error i decided to try one more time reinstalling everything in hope that would fix my issue with npm install but unfortunately that didn't help either.
I tried deleting node_modules,
cleaning npm cache,
sudo npm install,
sudo npm install --no-bin-links,
updating node and npm but both were at latest version already,
changing VagrantFile based on some posts i've seen around internet(that never worked because than i'd get an error when i use vagrant up),
reinstalling everything,
running bash as admin,
I can't even remember everything I've done. This became really exhausing.
My log is 17k+ lines long. I'll just post last part where error happens.

My last hope is to ask if someone has a solution for this or i should just give up on Homestead.
I have grappled with the exact same issue for the last two days, except that I run on macOS (10.14). Using yarn instead of npm has finally allowed me to compile properly (see the doc for installing the package: https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/#alternatives-stable). It is a package manager that can use the same package.json entry point as npm, and you can simply try to run yarn install to perform the same action as npm install (for more in depth comparison between the commands, you can check out this link: https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/migrating-from-npm/). To be sure, it does not fix the main issue with npm, but at least it should allow you to work on your project while waiting for a more sound answer.
