@rha 1. please install nodemon globally using npm. ```auto npm install -g nodemon ``` 1. When you do that, locate the **package.json** file in your **nodejs-express-api** folder and open it with an editor. Locate the line that contains `"start": "./node_modules/.bin/nodemon app.js --delay 2 -e js"` replace it with this `"start": "nodemon app.js --delay 2 -e js"`. 2. When you do that, on the command prompt where the error was displayed initially, run the following command there: ```auto npm run start ``` **Note:** this is temporary and once the **cmd** / **terminal** is closed, you will have to repeat **steps 2** and **3**. ---

Hi the problem is you are using a higher version of node js…go to node js site and download from their dist version _14.15.2_ then go to _programfiles/nodejs_ and replace the content of it with the new verison you download then restart noderad that will fix your problem.happy coding ---

I have the same problem, if I install the version 14.14 to run it, it tells me that it is a non-compactible version. ---

it works now, but… I have to run nodemon so that the app runs. I assume it’s because I don’t add to the variables around windows. ---

@ddiaz node has to be installed in the environment variable if you didn’t use insataller the first time.and also make sure you restart your radsystems
