Nest can't resolve dependencies of the ServeStaticModule about serve-static

@micalevisk I need to be clearer it seems... the unit test above passes with no issue. It's when I try to package that module in NPM and use it in another project... thats when the error happens

[micalevisk]

@UTGuy Oh so that's probably due to having more than one @nestjs/core/common loaded, which is expected due to how js works. Make sure you're using peer deps instead of hard dependencies

Hard to tell more without a repro.

I will give that a shot

@micalevisk This indeed fixed it! Thank you!

[metinjakupi]

@UTGuy how did you fix this?

For the record, in case it might be helpful for others...
I had updated a project I had not touched for months and upgraded all Nest libraries to latest 10+.
I ended up having exactly this error, and no override or change worked until out of desperation I rm -rf the node modules folder and reinstalled. This was the solution to actually get rid of the older version of @nestjs/core (which was indeed the culprit)
