I'm confused a) what the actual error is here - it seems some people with this missing module can still start their server, b) How can I fix this?
I've tried:
rm -rf node_modules
npm cache clean
npm install
npm-debug.log provided no additional errors/obviously useful info. This is a beginner setup using Express that makes a small query to MongoDB.
npm start output:
david@david-desktop:~/Documents/node/nodetest1$ npm start
> nodetest1@0.0.0 start /home/david/Documents/node/nodetest1
> node ./bin/www
