My NodeJS app is working perfect with command

# node server.js

but when starting with pm2

# pm2 start server.js

it immediately stopping with error in logs as follows

0|server   |     at internal/main/run_main_module.js:17:47 {
0|server   |   code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'
0|server   | }

0|server   |   code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'
0|server   | }

I created package.json and the file is there , what else could be the issue?

    Can you please add your server.js code? Mainly the first few lines containing `require` statements. – Saurav Kumar Nov 27 '21 at 07:56
  • import express from "express"; import http from "http"; const app = express(); const port = 3000; import {getProducts} from './products.mjs'; – Abhilash S Nov 27 '21 at 09:01
