The problem is arising from this line

const studentRoute = require('./api/routes/studentsRoute');

check if you have this included in that file

module.exports = router

Reference: TypeError: Router.use() requires middleware function but got a Object

thanks for your response. this is nodemon type of error and I have checked module.exports = router is alright.

First stop your local server CTRL + C then remove the package.json file, reinstall the package ,json file npm init after start your server its work to me.

npm init npm start

If you're on windows, restart your machine. This is what worked for me.
