This app worked before without problems and nothing was changed on app side. Both request and request-promise exists in node_modules directory

Hello,
I am facing the same issue.
Can you share your solution or how your are bypassing it ?
analog-nico commentedon Feb 17, 2019
Hey @pradiptabasu , you need to install
requestyourself before you installrequest-promise. See the installation instructions.analog-nico commentedon Feb 18, 2019
@MatthewDtotheG Do you have both libraries added to your
package.json? What donpm ls requestandnpm ls request-promiseoutput?slpixe commentedon Aug 5, 2019
In case anyone else runs into this issue recently via google search, I was encountering it with
node@10.16.0, and its working onnode@10.16.1likely due to a fix labled "fix esm load bug"(nodejs/node#25491) in the node changelogahmadasmandar commentedon Sep 10, 2019
