Node.js expected a directory but found a file path instead

ENOTDIR: not a directory

Node.js attempted to traverse or open a path as a directory, but one of the path segments is not actually a folder.

ENOTDIR: not a directory
  • A file path is being treated as if it were a directory.
  • One segment in a nested path resolves to a file instead of a folder.
  • Configuration or path concatenation created an invalid directory path.
  1. Inspect each segment of the resolved path and confirm which parts are directories.
  2. Correct the path construction logic so file and directory boundaries are explicit.
  3. Validate configuration inputs that contribute to the final path.
