node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1056 throw err;-CodePudding

I am using Node.js v19.4.0.

When I run npx create-react-app MyApp to create react project in visual studio code editor I get the following error:

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1056
  throw err;
  ^

CodePudding user response：

the first solution is to uninstall the node.js and npm and then reinstall them. or it might be because of an incorrect node_modules path. please check the path and make sure it is correct.

CodePudding user response：

First, try to clear npm cache:

npm cache clear --force or npm cache clean --force

then remove all node_modules from the application
remove the package-lock.json file from the application
Install packages again by using this command npm install
then start application using npm start

If the above solution will not work then, try to remove node.js and then re-install.

Hope this helps!
