npm start throws sh: react-scripts: command not found

Question

When I rename a react project, then change its name in package.json and package-lock.json, but when I run npm start command, it throws me the following error:

sh: react-scripts: command not found

I have found that usually that error is fixed by reinstalling node_modules folder. But when I run npm install it throws me the following error:

npm ERR! command failed
npm ERR! command sh -c node-gyp-build
npm ERR! sh: node-gyp-build: command not found

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /Users/manuferreras/.npm/_logs/2022-01-26T13_27_13_876Z-debug.log

Is there a solution for this?

Check npm version with command "npm -v"? You may need to reinstall npm
