node dist/api.js fails with "cannot find module bunyan"

[AumCoin]

Debian 11, fresh out of the box. I follow directions and and when I get to node dist/api.js it fails with the error below. The same is true whether I run as root or a normal user. I have tried various directions on the internet to install bunyan with --save or globally, but this did not affect the result. I have been through your directions multiple times. Please tell me how to resolve this error.

root@xbrowsersync:/home/rick/api# node dist/api.js
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936
  throw err;
  ^

Gave up in frustration after spending half a day on this and tried docker-compose by following the directions, then I installed the Firefox client. I click "switch service" and enter the hostname from my .env file. First I was using an IP address, then I switched the .env file to hostname and tried that in the client. In both cases it immediately tells me it cannot connect. I have no firewall enabled. I can ping the hostname from the docker host and elsewhere. Why isn't this hostname working with the Firefox client?

docker-compose ps:

It is not possible to connect to http://xbrowsersync.lan or https://xbrowsersync.lan from the client.

Not claiming to be an expert in any of the technologies used, just following the exact directions on your website for docker-compose, after the manual directions outright failed.

You have a missing dependency (bunyan), could be for a myriad of reasons. Go read up on Node.js.

Same error even after install the module...

"npm install bunyan" finish without error... but still got the error.
