HAD the same problem. Running Node with cra. installed cra -g for starters.

npm install -g create-react-app

then downgraded react-scripts to version 2.1.8

npm install react-scripts@2.1.8

created a .env file in root directory and added this to it.

DB_HOST=localhost
DB_USER=root
DB_PASS=s1mpl3

SKIP_PREFLIGHT_CHECK=true

Then you do the typical delete node_modules folder and the package-lock.json file.(NOT PACKAGE.JSON!!!)

then:

npm install
npm start

This worked for me. Sorry I'm not more informative on why this worked for me. I'm still trying to understand why it didn't work in the first place.
