    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.

    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!

    Downgrade to a lts supported version!

    brew install node@18

    brew link --overwrite node@18

    node --version

    worked for me. (Macbook M1; Ventura 13.1.)

    In my case I had to npm install the missing "modules" with was "npm install validator" and "npm install is-empty. The required stack pointed in the direction….took all of yesterday to figure it out.
