# Error: make sure your module has a default export of a service.

If you get the following error while building your Medusa application:

```bash
...doesn't seem to have a main service exported -- make sure your module has a default export of a service
```

## Why this Error Occurred

This error occurs when you set the `resolve` path of a module provider to point directly to a service file instead of the module directory.

For example, if you set the `resolve` path to `./src/modules/slack/service`:

```ts title="medusa-config.ts"
module.exports = defineConfig({
  // ...
  modules: [
    {
      resolve: "@medusajs/medusa/notification",
      options: {
        providers: [
          {
            resolve: "./src/modules/slack/service",
            id: "slack",
            options: {
              channels: ["slack"],
              webhook_url: process.env.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL,
              admin_url: process.env.SLACK_ADMIN_URL,
            },
          },
        ],
      },
    },
  ],
})
```

You'll get the error because the `resolve` path is pointing to the service file of the module provider, while it should point to the module directory.

***

## How to Fix it

To fix the error, set the `resolve` path to point to the module directory instead of the service file. For example:

```ts title="medusa-config.ts"
module.exports = defineConfig({
  // ...
  modules: [
    {
      resolve: "@medusajs/medusa/notification",
      options: {
        providers: [
          {
            resolve: "./src/modules/slack",
            id: "slack",
            options: {
              channels: ["slack"],
              webhook_url: process.env.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL,
              admin_url: process.env.SLACK_ADMIN_URL,
            },
          },
        ],
      },
    },
  ],
})
```
