not able to start frontend app of jhipster project-CodePudding

I created a jhipster project. But I am not able to run the application using mvnw command. after starting the app using mvnw the browser displays the error message that says the front end app is not running, try starting it separately. there's no error in the log.

However, when I tried starting the front end application alone with the "npm start" command I got the following error,

CodePudding user response：
