Node : Cannot find module common

I was running a node server w/o any issue and for some purpose had to remove the node_modules dir and re-install the dependencies. Upon doing so and running the server again I get this error :

Error: Cannot find module './common'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:547:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:474:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:596:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:11:18)
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Work\Cinde-Node\node_modules\debug\src\node.js:236:18)
    at Module._compile (module.js:652:30)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:663:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:565:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:505:12)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:497:3)

I installed common separately using npm install common but that didnt solve the problem.

How do I fix this ?

I was also facing same problem like:

Error: Cannot find module './sdam/common'

So I just removed the node_modules folder, then just ran command npm i.

That will download every dependencies mentioned in package.json file.

I was getting the same error when I tried running my express project. The following command helped me to fix the issue.

rm package-lock.json && rm -r node_modules && npm i --save --legacy-peer-deps

It looks like you have a line like require('./common'); it should be require('common')
