Error while running nestjs in production mode, cannot find module

Question

I have implemented a generic class as below which might be causing the problem,

    import { Logger } from \'@nestjs/common\';
    import { PaginationOptionsInt         


        

Answer 1

I have found the issue, it was because of absolute path while importing the class.

import { EntityService } from '../shared/service-common'; //correct way

import { EntityService } from 'src/shared/service-common'; // wrong autoimport

To fix auto import, I have added this setting in VS Code

"typescript.preferences.importModuleSpecifier": "relative"

Answer 2

I've also seen the same problem due to a capitalized reference, when the filename is lowercase:

import { SomeClass } from './Some.class'; 

but the file was named some.class.ts

Fixing the import resolved the error.

Answer 3

Delete the dist directory and run again with npm run start:dev

Answer 4

it caused by capitalized file Name.

Key-store.entity.ts -> key-store.entity.ts

make filename all to lowercase.
