When I try to run any javascript file from VS Code using native VS Code options: either 'Start debugging (F5)' or 'Run without debugging (CTRL + F5)', I get the following error:
Process exited with code 1
Uncaught Error Error: Cannot find module '/home/altair/Documents/Desktop/test/hello_world.js'
at Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:933:15)
at Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:778:27)
at executeUserEntryPoint (node:internal/modules/run_main:77:12)
at <anonymous> (node:internal/main/run_main_module:17:47)
Where /home/altair/Documents/Desktop/test/hello_world.js
is the path to file that I am trying to run.
I can run JS scripts fine from the terminal (including the terminal opened inside VS Code) with node ./hello_world.js
, so the problem must be somewhere in VS Code.
Is it possible to run JS scripts from within VS Code using F5 or CTRL + F5?
