When working on React applications, encountering module resolution errors can be frustrating. One common error is:
'Cannot find module 'ajv/dist/compile/codegen'
This error typically occurs due to missing or mismatched packages in your node_modules directory. Here’s a step-by-step guide to troubleshoot and resolve this issue effectively.
1. Delete node_modules and package-lock.json:
Sometimes, deleting these folders/files and reinstalling dependencies can resolve issues.
rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json
2. Clear npm Cache:
Clear the npm cache to ensure no corrupted files are being used during installation.
npm cache clean --force
3. Reinstall Dependencies:
Reinstall your project's dependencies.
npm install
4. Ensure Compatibility:
Ensure that your ajv and ajv-keywords versions are compatible. You can manually check this in your package.json or install compatible versions.
For example, if your ajv version is 7.x, ensure ajv-keywords version is also compatible with it:
npm install ajv@latest ajv-keywords@latest
Run the Application
After reinstalling the dependencies, try running your application again.
npm start
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, try updating your react-scripts to the latest version, as it might have fixes for such dependency issues.
npm install react-scripts@latest
Once done, run the application again:
npm start
