Error: Prevent writing to file that only differs in casing or query string from already written file. reactjs laravel

Question

I am working on a laravel reactjs project and when I run the command npm run dev the compilation stuck at 95% and give the following error. I checked in the whole project there is no file calling with the case-sensitive names all images are calling with the lower case letters.

Error: Prevent writing to file that only differs in casing or query string from already written file.
This will lead to a race-condition and corrupted files on case-insensitive file systems.
/media/public/images/user-4.jpg
/media/public/images/user-4.jpg

React: 17.0.1

Webpack: 5.21.2

Node: 14.15.2

In my case I had two entrypoints in my webpack.config.js and mistakenly had not modified the second one.

So changing

entry: { main: './src/index.tsx', another: './src/index.tsx' }

to

entry: { main: './src/index.tsx', another: './src/someOtherIndex.tsx' }

fixed the error
