Module.js - error cannot find module

Glitch Help
1

My project dailyworkout.glitch.me is experiencing an error, and complaining that module.js cannot find the module ‘safe-buffer’.

I updated all my dependencies, and all it did was change the module it could not find. I also tried rm -rf node_modules, then npm install, but to no avail. Is this an issue that can be fixed at your end? The project was working perfectly yesterday.

Thank you,
Alex

Hey @alexclifton4, sorry for the bother. running enable-pnpm in the console usually resolves this sort of problem.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

I haven’t used glitch for ages so I can’t help too much sorry, but the tip above from Cori worked for me 2 years ago.

Try opening the console and typing enable-pnpm.
Hope that helps.

hi cori! :slight_smile:
this sort of can’t-load-module thing has happened to me several times in the last week or so without me having done anything. do you know why it happens? (I flailed around a bunch last time so not sure what fixed it, but this time enable-pnpm did the trick)

It’s something we’re investigating, Adam! Next time it happens (and after you run enable-pnpm to get it back up and running) can you email support@glitch.com with the name of the project and a screenshot of the logs? :sparkles:
