node.jsnpmloopback4

lb4 app throws "Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory"


I am trying to create a loopback4 application following the official loopback documentation

I installed loopback4 using npm i -g @loopback/cli

I get the following error when creating a project using lb4 app

Solution

  • The problem was the node version. I was using the node version - v17.4.0 which is the current release. I switched to the latest LTS version i.e v16.13.2 and that fixed the problem. It seems that loopback4 doesn't yet support the latest version.
