When I create SAP Cloud Business Application it shows this message: Failed creating the CDS module.

Error log contents:

Any solutions out there?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

no solutions but have you been running a tutorial or follow an official script?

there are quite a few new versions of the cds bundle out there and may need some tweaking in configuration to make it all work.

Where can I check those CDS bundles? Can you please provide a link?

https://cap.cloud.sap/docs/releases/oct20

and by running:

user: projects $ cds version

@sap/cds: 4.3.0

@sap/cds-compiler: 1.45.0

@sap/cds-dk: 3.0.0

@sap/cds-foss: 2.2.0

@sap/cds-reflect: 2.13.3

@sap/cds-runtime: 2.6.7 Node.js: v10.22.1 home: /extbin/npm/globals/lib/node_modules/@sap/cds

but working off of a tutorial is the best way forward.
