Hi @jaymondmach, welcome to the Vercel Community!

Sorry that you're facing this issue. Have you tried doing: rm -rf node_modules/ to remove the node modules and doing pnpm i to reinstall the packages.

Also, which version of Node.js are you using? Can you check with node --version?

Hello,

I am using node version v22.12.0. To answer your question before yes I have already done rm -rf node_modules/

@jaymondmach @anshumanb I have exactly the same issue. The documentation needs a revision I think on this page https://nextjs.org/learn/dashboard-app/setting-up-your-database OR the nextjs-dashboard source code itself needs an update. Who has made the nextjs-dashboard example? I am using Node v22.14.0 Here's my error:

nextjs.org

App Router: Setting Up Your Database | Next.js

Setup a database for your application and seed it with initial data.

I fixed it by following the instructions of user kappy713 in https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/76822#discussioncomment-12411805

@jaymondmach you probably did the wrong things to get from bcrypt to bcryptjs, follow the steps mentioned there and you will get it fixed! @anshumanb

Hi @behanprw, thanks for sharing the solution here. I'm posting it below for anyone stumbling here:

Run the following commands to remove bcrypt and add bcryptjs

1
pnpm remove bcrypt
2
pnpm add bcryptjs

Then update the /app/seed/route.ts file to use bcryptjs:

1
// /app/seed/route.ts
2
- import bcrypt from "bcrypt";
3
+ import bcrypt from "bcryptjs";
