Error: Cannot find module '@heroku/buildpack-registry'

Question

I am trying to deploy a web app on Heroku. I am getting the following error Error: Cannot find module '@heroku/buildpack-registry' I tried adding the version of node I am using but still didn't help. I also upgraded Heroku using npm i [email protected] this too didn't help. Any thoughts on this?

This is my package.json

{"name":"gssrDB",
  "engines": {
    "node": "14.18.0"
  }
  ,
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "nodemon index.js",
    "start": "node index.js"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@heroku-cli/plugin-buildpacks": "^7.54.0",
    "@heroku/buildpack-registry": "^1.0.1",
    "async-file": "^2.0.2",

Answer 1

I solved it like this in terminal

$ heroku plugins:install buildpack-registry
$ heroku plugins:install buildpacks  

may be it works

Answer 2

I faced a similar problem, and I solved it by using proper node version. For the current heroku version, node16 works, otherwise it cause error in buildpack
