cleaning npm cache … worked for me

Wow… can’t believe I didn’t try that first. Confirming this solved the issue for me as well. npm cache clean --force

404 [GET] “/_nuxt/builds/meta/test.json”: 404 Cannot find any path matching /_nuxt/builds/meta/test.json. I cant seem to fix this. Only occurs on npm run dev but app works fine on npm run build. I have tried all the above suggestions. Any help will be highly appreciated.
