Invoking generator for vue-cli-plugin-nativescript-vue... ERROR Error: Cannot find module '@vue/cli-service/generator/template/src/main.js'

[XEQTIONR]

I was previously able to install this plugin properly, just a few days ago and have everything running. But I keep running into this issue when I try again for a new nativescript vue project.

Error messages look similar for previous issues posted. But references different files here.

.

The dashboard and plugins tabs are gone now, so I cannot even do it from vue UI

Here on a successfully working install previously

npm install --save-dev @vue/cli-service

@mklueh Please install vue 3.0..
By looking at the package.json i saw you have vue 2.6..

[gerciljunio]

I manually installed @vue/cli-service and it is working now

npm install --save-dev @vue/cli-service

@ramsesmoreno this worked for me, I'm using vue-cli 4.1.2, thanks!
