Everything worked fine then suddenly I got an error that crashes my app before start. I don't know from where error came when everything worked fine a day before

I had the same problem and the solution was embarrassingly simple. I use Visual Studio Code and had accidentally imported a bad, unused file.

Going over your files mentioned in the error output and see if you have imported the wrong file :)

Hope you find it!

If no code changed, the problem is probably corrupted node modules. First step would be removing your node_modules and reinstalling them.

There could also be with a problem with the import statement in your userController.js line 7.
