Cannot find module: in my app with node

I have problem with my app, the files' tree is:

myApp
 controllers
  cars.js
 models
  car.js
 app.js
 package.json

in my code I call my model and mi controller of the next way...

var express         = require('express');
var bodyParser      = require('body-parser');
var mongoose        = require('mongoose');
var methodOverride  = require("method-override");
var app             = express();
...

**var models = require('./models/car')(app, mongoose);**
**var CarCtrl = require('./controllers/cars');**

but, not working it.. I have the next error:

Error: Cannot find module 'controllers/cars'

Error: Cannot find module 'models/car'

anything idea? thank you.

Check both car and cars.js. If you require app.js in any of them, you created a chain dependency, which Node.js throws this exact error, that you can't find a module.

Try going to the root first. require('../myApp/controllers/cars'); If this didn't work, try console logging the path. Hope this works
