Couldn't start app

[Bora-aroB (Borislav Stamenic)]

I have an issue during running a script npm start.
NodeJS version: 11.10.0

When I try to run a script: npm start
I get this error message:

nodemon -L ./index.js

Thanks if anyone can help me.

This is already answered. Please search existing threads before posting.

The basic reason is you should not have run the npm audit fix because it’s not your application to maintain. You should simply delete the application, unpack from the archive again and just run npm install and nothing else. More detail has already been posted:

Db-connection fails while application works

TLDR; - You appear to have a dependency issue. Clean install the project. More Completely If you read similar posts already in this forum which basically have the same title ( which is what those sticky notes up the top of the posts are also asking you to do ), you will likely find that similar reports mention either an older NodeJS version OR what is actually the current development series being v11.x. It is strongly advised you do not run anything other than current LTS releases of NodeJS. …

Thanks @neillunn

I search but I couldn’t find the answer. I used NVM for node manager, and my current version of node is 10.15.1 and again I have the same issue.
I will google and try to set up my environment.
Sorry and thanks again.

To be clear, do NOT run npm audit fix

You must delete your currently installed mflix application and unpack it from the archive again.

Simply changing node versions alone will not do anything

Thanks, @neillunn I start the app, As you describe deleting all project, setting node version to the 10.15.1 and install all dependecies again helped to start app correctly.
