I faced the same issue and just by running the commands with the silent flag on, seems to be solving the problem. In my case I was getting the same error when i was running npm install. Running:
npm install --silent
worked. Form the flag explanation on npmjs docs --silent seems just to be hiding the messages from the terminal, but without the silent flag up, I was not able to see my node_modules installed. Now the application seems to be working fine.

Update

If you use TailwindCSS ^2.0, then make sure that your package.json file contains vue-template-compiler. This was causing all the issues to me...

Example/working package.json file

  "devDependencies": {
    "css-loader": "^5.0.1",
    "mini-css-extract-plugin": "^1.3.4",
    "postcss-loader": "^4.1.0",
    "webpack": "^5.16.0",
    "webpack-cli": "^4.5.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "autoprefixer": "^10.2.4",
    "cross-env": "^7.0",
    "jquery": "^3.5.1",
    "jquery-validation-unobtrusive": "^3.2.11",
    "postcss": "^8.2.4",
    "postcss-import": "^14.0.0",
    "tailwindcss": "^2.0.2",
    "vue-template-compiler": "^2.6.12"
  }

Previous comment

  1. Remove webpack-cli from package.json (manually)
  2. Uninstall all npm modules npm uninstall *
  3. Reinstall them (without webpack-cli). Note: npm will ask you if you want webpack-cli to be installed, so just click yes) npm install
  4. It will work fine at this point (for 1 time)
