Error: Cannot find module 'C:\XXX\XXX/config-overrides'

Question

I have created a sample react/redux/.net core app by using this Tutorial. But when I try to start the application with npm start I get the 'cannot find module error'.

I have tried to clean the app by running the following commands:

• npm cache clean --force
• rm -rf node_modules
• npm install

But with no success.

package.json

Answer 1

The error is often associated with the config-overrides.js not being in the root folder. This config is expected by react-app-rewired.
