Lesson 5: Module Not Found error

[SandyTampaBay]

I'm around hour 7 of the course and I try to run "Node deploy.js" and I get the following error.

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:959
throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module '/Users/michaelsandora/hh-fcc2/hh-fcc2/ethers-simple-storage2/deploy.js'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:956:15)
at Function.Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:804:27)
at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:81:12)
at node:internal/main/run_main_module:17:47 {
code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
requireStack: []
}

in a prior discussion, I saw that it was suggested to delete "Node_modules" and use command "install npm". That did not work. I also ran "install npm --dev" after "install npm" and that didn't work either. earlier in the course I was able to use "node deploy.js" and got it to work but now I get the error message. I think that was before i installed "sudo yarn" to get that to work so i'm not sure if it has anything to do with that. thanks for your help, i'll provide a screenshot of where i'm at in the replies in case that helps.

Hey @SandyTampaBay You are trying to run a nonexistent file that why you get that error. You are on the wrong folder. Move a directory backwards then run the command. The file deploy.js is not inside the ethers-simple-storage2 directory.

You should close this if the issue is resolved.

Good luck!
