If You Receive "Error: Cannot Find Module"

If you run the startup.bat & get an error similar to:

C:\admin-tools-server>server.bat
module.js:471
throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module 'express'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15)
at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25)
at Module.require (module.js:497:17)

Press any key to continue . . .

NOTE: The likely module will be ‘express’, but if any other module name appears there, the solution will be the same:

1. Navigate to the app-server folder & open your command prompt from that directory (we recommend git bash)

   -Alternatively, open your cmd prompt & navigate to the app-server.

2. Run the following command: npm install

3. Restart your 'Admin Tools Server' service
