Repl Debugging Folder Causes Starting Server to Crash

[haasj22]

After building the web server with node.js with v18.1 (I tried 15 and 12 and got similar issues), I got at least one of the following error (appended to bottom) when running my program causing my server to crash.

My experience with type script is limited, but for some reason it was trying to synchronize repl files that did not exist. I was able to fix the errors by turning repl off in the config.ts, but it's weird that the issue exists at all. I wonder if its partially OS related as I am using a Mac and other people seem to not be having this issue. Perhaps someone more knowledgable will have a better idea.
