Subject: Error: “The Libs folder is missing!” When Launching HttpApi.Host from ABP Studio / Visual Studio

Description:

We are encountering an issue when attempting to launch the HttpApi.Host project from within ABP Studio and Visual Studio. The error message indicates that the Libs folder is missing, despite having run the abp install-libs command as instructed.

Error Message:

The Libs folder is missing!
The Libs folder contains mandatory NPM Packages for running the project.

Make sure you run the abp install-libs CLI tool command.

If your application does not use any client-side libraries, you can disable this check by setting AbpMvcLibsOptions.CheckLibs to false, as shown below:

Configure<AbpMvcLibsOptions>(options =>
{
    options.CheckLibs = false;
});
For more information, check out the ABP CLI documentation.

Steps Taken:

Verified that Node.js and NPM are installed and working properly.
Executed abp install-libs in the project root directory.
Confirmed the command completed without errors.
Attempted to launch the HttpApi.Host project again in both ABP Studio and Visual Studio.
Error persists and the Libs folder does not get created.

Can you help us identify what might be going wrong or suggest additional troubleshooting steps?

Thanks in advance for your support!
