it seems like it’s missing the mysql module? What command are you using?

I followed this tutorial Configuring MySQL on your Strapi project and use the command

yarn create strapi-app myApp

Can you try with npx create-strapi-app@latest myApp Functionally it should do the same thing and we have the CLI configured to use yarn to install the packages regardless.

I’m just curious if that will change anything.

no, it didn’t change anything…
