Your app is expecting to find a file at /home/embah/node/nodeapp/config/config.json but that file does not exist (which is what ENOENT means). So you either need to create the expected directory structure or else configure your application such that it looks in the correct directory for config.json.

If you ever get this error, the hotfix is to follow these steps: delete node-modules folder run command npm cache clean --force run command npm install install the package again with npm install your-package-name

Try to move then the project to the path which does not have any whitespaces: "D:Live Project" -> "D:Projects". If this does not help, please do ls -la on your project folder where you do the "npm install" command – Egizas
