'NestJS microservices "Cannot find module"

So, I'm trying to create my first microservice using NestJS, but the moment I try to run it, the service stops with this error:

[13:39:21] Found 0 errors. Watching for file changes.

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\voryi\IdeaProjects\YWA\des_server\services\learning-service\dist\main'

Solution 1:[1]

there's no main.js file in the first level of your dist directory. You can define the entry file by adding this to your nest-cli.json:
"entryFile": "learning-service/src/main"
the default is main

Solution 2:[2]

try npm run build and then restart your service
