Heroku error after deployment - cannot find module 'mongoose'

Time：05-03

I deployed a MERN app to Heroku.

I ran "npm run build" and added all of the frontend files into backend/public/ folder.

It starts the server after pushing it, because it logs me a "server is running" message in the console, but when I go on the website (https://stonkappmern.herokuapp.com/) it gives me an application error ( works fine on localhost ).

For some reason it fails to work with this error in the terminal ( after running "Heroku logs --tail"):

I'm pretty sure I have mongoose installed - it's also in the package.json file.

In the backend file (index.js) I have:

const mongoose = require("mongoose");

async function connectToMongoDB() {
    await mongoose.connect(URI);
    // console.log("connected to mongodb");
};

Here's my folder structure:

enter image description here

Any ideas on what the issue could be ? Should I upload more files?

CodePudding user response：

I think your scripts is not correct.
https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/using-npm/scripts#npm-start
for node js part:
change your scripts in package.json like this:

  "scripts": {
    "start": "node index.js -p $PORT",
  },

heroku looks for start command to run your app and will assign a port to $PORT.
Based on your porject structure, your app does not require build at all.
