Error in HotModuleReplacementPlugin after upgrading from 2 to 3.

** What is the current behavior?** Upgrading from webpack 2 to 3, runningwebpack in the commandline, gives me an error in HotModuleReplacementPlugin.Removing the plugin makes webpack pass.

C:\Users\Documents\project\node_modules\webpack\lib\HotModuleReplacementPlugin.js:59
                                        records.chunkModuleIds[chunk.id] = chunk.mapModules(m => m.id);

  ** What is the expected behavior?**
    I expected a smooth upgrade :)

webpack v3.5.2 node v7.4.0

destroy node_modules and npm install - solved my problem with HMR, webpack 3.5.3

This problem happens when you have old version webpack. Solution:

1. Remove webpack from global npm remove -g webpack.
2. Clear npm cache npm cache clear --force.
3. Install webpack and deps again.
