But when I run the code I get this error. anyone know why this is happening and what I need to solve this.

node.js:197
        throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
          ^
Error: Cannot find module '/home/ubuntu/public_html/node_test.js'
   at Function._resolveFilename (module.js:332:15)
   at Function._load (module.js:279:25)

You should post your primary .js file that you are running in node so we can find your exact problem.

My guess is you are passing the wrong value to require. Pass a relative file path without the filename extension like this: var node_test = require("./public_html/node_test");
