If you are going through the Truffle TokenTutorial smart contract <\/a>and you can’t run “npm run dev” because you get the following error below, it can be very frustrating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You follow all the instructions to the letter but get this strange error such as: – Cannot find module ‘..\/lib\/lite-server’
– ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
– ERR! tutorialtoken@1.0.0 dev: `lite-server`<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with most computer problems, when all else fails, restart from the beginning. Here, a clean install of npm resolved this issue for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, delete the node_module folder in your project directory and also the package-lock.json file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Then run npm install again. Now you should be able to run “npm run dev” successfully.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
