Here is my complete error:

Error: Cannot find module \'ejs\'

Answer 1

npm install ejs --save worked for me ! ✅

On goormIDE, I had this file configuration :

• container
  • main.js
  • package-lock.json
  • package.json
  • node_modules
  • views
    • home.ejs

In my main.js file, I also had this route

app.get("/", function(req, res){
res.render("home.ejs");
})

npm install ejs -g didn't add the corresponding dependency within the package.json. npm install ejs --save did. I executed the command line from the container directory. Manually it could have been added into the package.json with : **

"dependencies": {
    "ejs": "^3.0.2",}
