Fatal error with v1.16.1: Cannot find module 'node:module'

[dockleryxk]

Edit: Workarounds

If possible, update to Node 16 or higher (thanks @fanwei1991).

If you're using yarn, you can add this to your package.json (thanks @smyth64):

"resolutions": { 
   "jiti": "1.16.0" 
}

If you're using a new enough version of NPM, you can add this to your package.json (but be aware of the caveats):

"overrides": { 
   "jiti": "1.16.0" 
}

Environment

Node 12.6.0 (also happens on Node 14.17)

Reproduction

Installing nuxt on a fresh docker container

Describe the bug

This is pretty much identical to #48

i same for jiti@1.16.1 on docker gitlab

[sanjeet2009]

Same for me:

Tried "overrides": {"jiti": "1.14.0"}, But it has not worked.

`> nuxt build --modern=server

@dockleryxk i think your NodeJS version is <= 12, upgrade node or fix "jiti": "1.16.0" to resolve it.
node: is new syntax in nodejs.

[remirobichet]

As mentioned @dockleryxk this error is similar to #48
@pi0 fixed it by removing mlly package.
Isn't it still related to mlly ? Package have been updated to v1.0.0 in jiti 1.16.1

jiti/package.json

Line 60 in 4d6b20d

"mlly": "^1.0.0",

Edit:
Some changes from mlly related to node:module can produce the error:
unjs/mlly@v0.5.14...v1.0.0
https://github.com/unjs/mlly/blob/6905f5940406d8745e5d9f67506ede30715b2255/src/_utils.ts#L1

I also have the same problem since today, cannot deploy my app anymore :o

[smyth64]

I found a solution 😍 ⭐️

The problem is the jiti update.

I fixed it by using the previous jiti version on nuxt utils :)

"resolutions": { "nuxt/@nuxt/utils/jiti": "1.16.0" },

[dockleryxk]

@vietanh74 I can confirm the same thing happens on Node 14.17.

Adding the resolutions works only for yarn, and there is an overrides field for newer versions on NPM (albeit with caveats), but that isn't a great solution in the long term.

In the short term, we're using yarn resolutions while we wait for a fix.

@pi0 thank you for your work on this package!

[fanwei1991]

I also encountered this problem. node 14.17.0 was unavailable. After upgrading node to 16, this problem was removed

[daglenn1960]

Encountered this issue as well. Doing these did not work:

• reverting to jiti 1.14.0
• updating to node 16.16.0

Fix was both:

• adding override (as above) [jiti 1.16.0]
• updating to node 16.16.0

[freezyh]

"overrides": { 
   "jiti": "1.16.0" 
}

Tried "overrides": {"jiti": "1.14.0"}, But it has not worked.

[xukingnie]

node 14.16.0 also have the same problem

[pi0]

jiti@1.16.2 should work again on older Node.js versions without node: protocol support.

If still having issues after updating and recreating lockfile, please ping to reopen.

If possible, please try upgrading Node.js to the latest 16.x or 18.x LTS.
