Common Create-React-App Errors
TypeError: cmd is not a function
This error typically occurs when you set up a Medusa project with create-medusa-app and try to run the Medusa backend.
To resolve this issue, make sure you change into the backend directory of the Medusa project you created before trying to start the Medusa backend:
Invalid Token Error with --no-browser Option
If you use the --no-browser option with the create-medusa-app command, you'll find a URL outputted at the end of the command execution. This is the URL that you can use to set a password for your admin user.
However, if you copy the URL, then try later to access that URL, you may receive an "Invalid Token" error. This is because when you copy the URL, a lot of extra space may be added into the token. So, you must clear out the spaces within the token and the || characters, then try again.
Alternatively, you can create a new user with the medusa user command.
