Laravel elixir not found when running gulp in cli

Question

It has been pretty frustrating finding the solution to this problem today, as I've tried searching on Google and went to all of different forums and websites in search of a solution, but none of them worked for me.

Is there anyone who could tell me what I could try in order to solve this? Facts:

Fresh Laravel installation
Ran npm install
Ran npm install gulp
Ran gulp
Got this error

package.json contents

{
  "private": true,
  "devDependencies": {
    "gulp": "^3.8.8"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "laravel-elixir": "^4.0.0",
    "bootstrap-sass": "^3.0.0"
  }
}

try to remove the node_modules directory completely and issue npm install or npm install --no-bin-links without gulp, gulp should already included in packages.json

Very old question I know, but, if still having issue... Try to run

npm install laravel-elixir --save-dev

command manually on prompt.

And then make sure you added following code line in gulpfile.js file

var elixir = require('laravel-elixir');
