Hi, i’ve the same error with node version v12.18.3
try with v18, it’s ok for me

probably you need to install “next”
in this case exec in shell command “npm install next”

i hope i was helpful

Does not work either at my side.

I had the same error and was able to fix by installing the latest node. v18 worked for me (since I’m on windows, I did have to go toe the node website and get the latest version there)

Hello,

you need to update your node version because you have an old one.

To fix it, just run: npm install node
