Node sure if this is an NPM issue or app issue. After following steps of cloning, npm installing, and updating Twitter Credentials.. This is the error I get when I type node server.js

module.js:333 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module 'mongodb/node_modules/bson' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:331:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:273:25) at Module.require (module.js:357:17) at require (module.js:373:17) at Object.

After deleting node_modules and reinstalling a couple times it still didn't work. I finally manually npm installed bson and this fixed the issue. I think this was an NPM issue not an App issue, but still wanted to note it if anyone else has the same problem.

yeah i had the same issue and i am trying to update the code on

Heroku.

I am able to make it work with npm install inside node modules/mongodb but I am unable to do so in the server code while deploying it on heroku.
