Cannot find module 'json-server'

mmm … ok, try to install json-server locally (not globally)

1. go to your server.js directory and run npm init -y
2. npm install json-server --save-dev

You also could try:

1. go to your server.js directory and run npm link json-server
2. run node server.js

–

aside from that, I highly recommend you to change your global node_modules directory by setting an Environment variable NODE_PATH to /usr/lib/node_modules

export NODE_PATH=/usr/lib/node_modules

and then try to reinstall json-server (npm uninstall -g json-server && npm install -g json-server)

I am assuming that you are missing a very very very simple and obvious step with I can’t guess, so I’ll write down the steps (sorry if it is super obvious for you) but just to make sure that we are in the same line.

1. create a new directory (in your case I see you called it fake-server)
2. copy the code snippet in server.js file
3. run npm install -g json-server
4. run node server.js

if you did the above and it is still not running, from the same directory that server.js file exist, run which json-serverand share the result of this command with us here.
