Fix OnFatalError

in Node.js

Solution

"OnFatalError" in Node.js generally indicates an unrecoverable error within the V8 JavaScript engine, often due to memory exhaustion, stack overflows, or bugs in native modules or the Node.js runtime itself. To mitigate this, ensure your code avoids excessive memory allocations (e.g., creating extremely large arrays), carefully manage recursion to prevent stack overflows, and verify the compatibility and stability of any native modules you're using. Update Node.js to the latest stable version, as newer releases often contain bug fixes addressing such errors.
