如何修复 UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError？

Question

So I am making a web app using Express.JS and MongoDB and when I try to run it locally, it works, but when I run it with my aws Ubuntu 20.04 machine it gives me the following error:

(node:13452) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: [objectOptions,urlOptions,exports.DEFAULT_OPTIONS].flatMap is not a function

I have no clue why this is doing this all I have installed is mongodb,npm, and node.

This could happen by several reasons:

1. Do you have MongoDB installed on you AWS machine?
2. Do versions of Node.js/NPM/MongoDB mismatch on your local machine and on AWS machine?

PS If that error occurs on startup, then the error can be interpreted as - "Couldn't connect to MongoDB instance". Check that stuff related to Mongo.
