issue with mime

having issues with mime

Ubuntu Bionic Beaver
node --version v8.9.4

Solved by replacing mime to mime-types in node_modules/node-static/lib/node-static.js
line 7,
< , mime = require('mime')

, mime = require('mime-types')

npm install mime-types

Hi, I've got the exact same error. I've solved with this command:

npm install mime@1.3.6

Hope it helps :D

I was able to fix this problem by editing fabmodules-html5/node_modules/node-static/lib/node-static.js

I replaced the call to mime.lookup with mime.getType and I no longer get this error.
