Webpack-Cli dependency error in asp.net core 2.0 compilation

Question

I have a asp.net core react app and using webpack for bundling .I have installed required dependencies but when build application it shows an error.

How could i resolve this error.

I have installed required dependencies so many times done npm cache clean and restarted a machine.still its showing not installed in vs solution explorer.

webpack installed in requied folder.

IN vs solution

when try to restore package inside solution explorer,its not installed.

webpack-cli is missing

Answer 1

You doing wrong in your npm install

Should be this command for global

npm i -g webpack-cli

or this command for local

npm i -D webpack-cli

You can not mix up between -D -g flag

If that didn't work for you try to right click on that package and click restore

Update:

Try to delete package-lock.json then run npm i -D webpack-cli again
