Docker container failing

[Gonzalo933]

Hello, I am trying to run this app via Docker and I can build it fine with docker-compose build but when I try to start it with docker-compose up I get the following error:

My guess is that the package "express" is missing in the npm requirements

The dependencies are fine, I cannot find the cause of the error

What's your docker platform?

I have the feeling this kind of error and similar ones are currently going around due to node LTS upgrade. I would recommend to experiment with different node versions for this build.
