I'm using the concurrently npm package (5.1.0) in my node project to run two npm scripts in parallel. But when I run npm start
in cmd prompt to start my scripts, concurrently tries running the commands in, what I believe to be, my home dir which is the system32 folder on my machine.
I have the following in my package.json:
{
"scripts": {
"build:watch": "tsc -p src/ -w",
"serve": "lite-server -c=bs-config.json",
"start": "concurrently \"npm run build:watch\" \"npm run serve\""
}
}
And this is the output I get:
> concurrently "npm run build:watch" "npm run serve"

I tried different versions of concurrently and tried to find a way to specify the working dir dynamically but have failed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I fixed my problem by switching to npm-run-all.
After installing I simply changed my command to the following:
"start": "run-p build:watch serve"
