vm Module Loader throws "request for 'net' is not in cache"

Details

I'm using the vm API in a project, where I need to provide virtual environments for code to run. However, during linking (link() method), I get the following error. Error: request for 'net' is not in cache at SourceTextModule.link (node:internal/vm/module:199:17)

Please, what am I doing wrong? I deeply appreciate your help.

Could you please provide a link to the code?

Also, Can you share detailed log

[akwotom]

The code is part of a complex system, and wouldn't even make sense, if shared. To reproduce this, just have a situation where two modules require each other, cyclically.

[prettydiff]

There must be more to the problem then that because the ECMA module syntax used in the language already accounts for this. For example my browser network library and my browser web socket libraries import each other:

• https://github.com/prettydiff/share-file-systems/blob/master/lib/browser/utilities/webSocket.ts
