This error indicates that the SonarQube scanner, specifically its internal TypeScript/JavaScript analysis engine, was invoked with an invalid or unrecognized value for the `--moduleresolution` option. This option is crucial for correctly interpreting module imports and exports in TypeScript/JavaScript projects, and the error lists the only accepted values: `node`, `classic`, `node16`, or `nodenext`. Providing any other value will result in this error.
