You can try to supply the path explicitly --reporter=./node_modules/mochawesome. I had the same issue, because my package manager uses symlinks to construct the node_modules directory so require() can not find mochawesome without a proper path.

Might also apply to #274

Possibly a permissions issue? Can you consistently reproduce this? I installed those versions in a clean workspace and it works. What is the script you use to run your tests?

I read npx command docs, and try npx command: npx mocha --reporter mochawesome. npx mocha can avoid this problem.
