Node.js node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936 error while trying to use discord.js

Question

I'm trying to make a discord bot with the command prefix "*" but when I try to get the bot online/run it, it gives me this error:

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936 node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936 throw err; ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\name\const' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:933:15) at Function.Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:778:27) at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:79:12) at node:internal/main/run_main_module:17:47 { code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND', requireStack: [] }

The module I'm using is discord.js and i've installed discord.js on CMD and the VSC terminal but it still comes up with the MODULE NOT FOUND error. I've looked around the internet and I can't find one that fixes the problem. I've tried reinstalling Node.js but it won't stop coming back.

Answer 1

same error with me but I just change file dir cause I run node <filename.js> in the wrong dir so I just change like --- the first step chacks you are in the right dir or not type: > ls then if you are in the right dir then type: node <filename.js> if not then change your dir to change dir type: cd <filename> and then run your first app or file for run type: node <filename.js>

I hope your error is solved!
