This is a webpack issue for 'older' packages

Here is the solution that worked for me: 1. npm i --save react-app-rewired 2. In package.json "scripts" wherever you have 'react-scripts' -> replace with 'react-app-rewired' like this:

"start": "react-app-rewired  start",
"build": "react-app-rewired build",
"test": "react-app-rewired test",
"eject": "react-app-rewired eject",

create 'config-overrides.js' file in root folder 4. save config file with this content:

module.exports = function override(webpackConfig) {
  webpackConfig.module.rules.push({
    test: /\.mjs$/,
    include: /node_modules/,
    type: 'javascript/auto'
  });

  return webpackConfig;
};
