Parcel Error - module not found @parcel\fs-search\fs-search.win32-x64-msvc.node #7104

AmmarSayed · 2021-10-15T22:06:22Z

🐛 bug report

Parcel gives me an error when I run yarn start, or yarn build, or npm start or build

I recently upgraded to windows 11

** Updates: **
I've rolled back to a fresh installation of windows 10, and I got the same error 😒, I'm not sure what's happening here but it seems like there's some mistake in parcel installation.

🎛 Configuration ( package.json)

{
  "name": "testing",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "license": "MIT",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "parcel index.html",
    "build": "parcel build"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "parcel": "^2.0.0"
  }
}

🤔 Expected Behavior

It should run the build or the development server, but neither happened

😯 Current Behavior

An error in the terminal

λ yarn start
yarn run v1.22.15
$ parcel index.html
Error: The specified module could not be found.

💁 Possible Solution

I removed entire node module , reinstalled parcel several times, and still facing the same issue

🔦 Context

Just runing a normal start script to see a console log in the browser, it was just a startup file

💻 Code Sample

I have nothing special in my code, it's just a startup file

index.html file

<!DOCTYPE html>

The wierd thing is when I looked at the specified folder in the error, I found that module "fs-search.win32-x64-msvc.node" , It's already there under following directory

node_moduels /
-- @parcel /
---fs-search /
---- fs-search.win32-x64-msvc.node

, which the error claiming it's not found! 😕

I'm not sure what could be causing this issue,
any one can help?

Hi, some of my students have the same problem : Parcel Error - module not found @parcel\fs-search\fs-search.win32-x64-msvc.node.
I solved the problem using Parcel v1 : npm install -D parcel-bundler
In some computer for any reason Parcel v2 does not work when you use "npx parcel src/index.html" and return the error "Error - module not found @parcel\fs-search\fs-search.win32-x64-msvc.node". Sorry I didn't find the root cause.

Shausti · 2021-11-12T16:47:35Z

This worked for me for parcel 2.

The issue is because the package is failing due to a missing library on the computer. fs-search requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (x64).

You can get the download here -> https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

mischnic · 2021-11-12T17:25:31Z

That does make sense because the error message is ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED, not something like ENOENT (for "file not found").

AmmarSayed · 2021-11-12T17:50:09Z

You Are Ssuuupppper Awwwwsomeee
it worked, and I'll upgrade to windows 11 again and re-check,

just wondering if theres some mistake I did that caused that error, or is it just missing from the windows installation media files.

Thank you anyway for your support,

the issue is resolved on my side for windows 10

AmmarSayed · 2021-11-14T00:26:14Z

Issue is resolved as well on windows 11

This really worked for me❤❤❤❤❤ At first I had some doubts, but now I would recommend this to anyone having the same issue. Thanks by the way👍🏿

Imtiajul · 2022-08-26T00:24:32Z

Thanks a lot. You are awesome. It took a lot of time to fix this. I got this error after updating the Windows version. It worked for me for gatsby Js framework.

ayesha1247 · 2022-09-06T07:56:33Z

hey ammar i am facing the same issue as yours...can u please guide me on the parcel 2 thing plzz??

AmmarSayed · 2022-09-06T08:50:25Z

Hello dear, it's just a missing c++ package in the windows installation, once I downloaded it and restated my laptop, it just works.

You can download it from here

https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

ayesha1247 · 2022-09-06T14:23:51Z

hey ammar thanks for replying me...actually my issue got resolved already but thanks anyway☺☺

It's work's for me anyone please explain me how it is working

UsamaMohamedKhalil · 2022-10-22T23:17:36Z

I install the file and still the error show on my face.

pablojsx · 2022-11-16T00:54:42Z

Had the same erro and I managed to solve it:
-I Updated windows 10 and then downloaded some security updates.
-Installed the software from the post above.
-Reinstalled node.
-Added NODE_PATH manually thanks to a youtube video.
-delete the node_modules folder from the project and run npm install

Then got a different error:
Restarted the computer and it worked. Remember that the "main" key inside the package.json must have a js extension.

This is a life saver, man! I just spent more than 4 hours solving this issue. Just setup my new PC and tried to run it. Thank God, I found it.

Thanks man!

GagandeepSidhu · 2024-04-07T18:40:22Z

It's not because of the missing library, but rather the older version of Node.js. Try upgrading the Node version and then running the command again, it should work now.
