[Bug]: Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]

What happened?

I installed from CLI (https://josephdadams.github.io/TallyArbiter/docs/installation/cli), but but it doesn't want to start on Raspberry Pi (Linux magic-pi 6.1.21-v7+ #1642 SMP Mon Apr 3 17:20:52 BST 2023 armv7l).

is already handled.

The issue with

is caused by the change of axios from 0.27.2 to 1.6.0. If I understand it correctly is it an issue since later axios versions don't support require(). I don't know what is the correct way of solving this.

[Jocke4f]

I looked around for a short online summary of what needs to be done. One summary was this: https://www.sobyte.net/post/2022-07/es-module-error/

[Jocke4f]

Should we as a temporary solution revert #607?

This way we would use an axios version that can be used the old way. If we makes this revert we can created a new TA release so a number of fixes since 3.0.7 are included in an official release. hopefully even the docker package and once again installation via npm.

Works for me

Not for me. Or later, in the next version?
