Please note that elixir is a programming language, please be careful with tags. I have changed it to be laravel-elixir. — Aleksei Matiushkin

To fix this issue, just delete your public/build folder and then run gulp again. I faced this issue several times and everytime my issue is fixed by deleting the build folder.

Hope this will help.
