Express-handlebars is missing error

1

I get this error when I try to deploy web service - error: Cannot find package ‘express-handlebars’ from ‘/opt/render/project/src/server/node_modules/nodemailer-express-handlebars/lib/generator.js’

The nodemailer-express-handlebars uses express-handle bars as a dev dependency, somehow render isn’t installing express-handle bars.

I’ve read previous issue about the same error and followed Alan’s instructions, but it still doesn’t seem to work.

devDependencies are not installed on Render because NODE_ENV defaults to production.

If you need it on Render, it’s probably not a devDependency.

I use bun as my default package manager. I just used bun i in the build command and the server is up and running lol
