CodePudding user response：

Did you read the error? That mongoose-auto-increment library requires version 4 of mongoose, but you have mongoose 5.

You can see if things might work by adding one of the options suggested in the error, i.e. npm i --legacy-peer-deps or npm i --force, or you might want to look for a newer versionf of mongoose-auto-increment that claims support for Mongoose 5 (though that seems to be unlikely, since that last version of that library was released 7 years ago).

CodePudding user response：

Would you please remove node_modules folder from the root of your project?

Then try to run

npm install

If this is still the problem. Try removing node_modules folder again and run

npm i --legacy-peer-deps

If this still not works, try to downgrade/upgrade the package mongoose-auto-increment

I hope those steps will work. Let me know this problem still persits.
