"[nodemon] clean exit - waiting for changes before restart": while trying to start the server

I keep running into this error while trying to run my code...

[nodemon] 2.0.15
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching path(s): *.*
[nodemon] watching extensions: js,mjs,json
[nodemon] starting `node server.js`
[nodemon] clean exit - waiting for changes before restart

This is the code that I'm trying to run:

import app from "./server";
import mongodb from "mongodb";
import dotenv from "dotenv";

//configuiring dotenv for use
dotenv.config();
const MongoClient = mongodb.MongoClient;

const port = process.env.PORT || 8000; // if the port(5000 in this one) from dotenv file cant be accesed then access 8000

MongoClient.connect(process.env.RESTREVIEWS_DB_URI, {
  poolsize: 50, //max no of users at a time
  wtimeout: 2500, //timeout after 2500 ms
  useNewUrlParse: true,  
})
  .catch((err) => {
    //if connection fails
    console.error(err.stack);
    process.exit(1);
  })
  .then(async (client) => {
    app.listen(port, () => {
      console.log(`listening on the port ${port}`);
    });
  });

// --   AND WE ARE DONE WITH THE DATABASE AND HAVE STARTED OUR WEB SERVER  --

I've tried changing the Execution policy to Unrestricted mode and Remote but it still doesn't work. It would be great if someone could help me figure out what I'm doing wrong!

Try reverting nodemon version to 1.2.1 will fix the problem.
