The same setup worked before on other projects but an update? seems to have broken this.
I know at least one other guy in discord with the same error.

Had the same issue.
To fix it add clientLogLevel: "silent" or clientLogLevel: "warn" in your webpack-dev-server config under vue.config.js for now!

There is a new webpack-dev-server version which changes the names of some log level variables: webpack/webpack-dev-server@7f52bbf

or just encoutered the same thing
modifying serve.js file clientloglevel to 'info' has fixed it
its currently set to 'none' which is not a supported option
serve.js file located here: node_modules@vue\cli-service\lib\commands
line 139

@Mo0812 Thank you

example of vue.config.js. create it in folder of project

module.exports = {
  devServer: {
    clientLogLevel: "warn",
  }
}

Ah I tried this first with a webpack.config.js as documented in https://webpack.js.org/configuration/dev-server/#devserverclientloglevel but that's apparently ignored or overridden

[wizardnet972]

Bug report, that's was fast :)

[franciscobrba]

I made a pull request to fix it.
@gr8den the right equivalent should be 'silent' and not 'warn'

We have released webpack-dev-server@3.4.1 for fixing. Thanks. https://github.com/webpack/webpack-dev-server/releases/tag/v3.4.1

[pburdette]

Thanks @hiroppy !

@LinusBorg I've opened a PR to bump to the latest version so the fix will go into play.
