json-server returns TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]

I just installed json-server and ran it, then I got an error.

db.json

{
  "user": {
    "id": 0,
    "name": "John"
  }
}

a part of package.json

    "scripts": {
      "json-server": "json-server --watch db.json -port 5000"
    },

I ran npm run json-server and I got

> myproject@0.1.0 json-server
> json-server --watch db.json -port 5000


  \{^_^}/ hi!

  Loading db.json
  Loading true
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or URL. Received type boolean (true)
    at Object.openSync (node:fs:591:10)

    at /Users/admin/project/myproject/node_modules/json-server/lib/cli/run.js:118:32 {
  code: 'ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE'
}

There is an issue but these solutions didn't work for me. Some people say use the latest react-scripts, so I use the latest one.

Environment

• macOS 12.5
• TypeScript 4.8.4
• React 18.2.0
• react-scripts 5.0.1
• json-server 0.17.0

Thank you to read, can anyone solve it?

Change your command to

"scripts": {
  "json-server": "json-server --watch db.json --port 5000"
},

You miss a "-" before -port. It should be --port.
