ENOENT, no such file or directory

Question

I\'m getting this error from my node app:

ENOENT, no such file or directory \'~/Desktop/MyApp/newversion/partials/navigation.jade\'

I know

Answer 1

__dirname 

Gives you the current node application's rooth directory.

In your case, you'd use

__dirname + '/Desktop/MyApp/newversion/partials/navigation.jade';
