''SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module'

I have updated by configuration to node 16.15.0 on both local machine and server. The code is running fine on local machine but on server it gives an Error - "SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module".

I have used import http from 'http';

I tried adding "type": "module" on server but it didn't solve the issue as I'm using both import and require. I am not sure how it runs on my local machine but is throwing error on server.

Can someone please help me with this?
