Join messages don't want to work?

For some reason, it can't read "messages.json" because it's not valid directory...but it's right there?
client.on(Events.GuildMemberAdd, async (member) => {
if (member.guild.id != GUILD_ID) return;

// Read the JSON file
const jsonData = JSON.parse(readFileSync("messages.json", 'utf8'));

// Get a random join message index
const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * jsonData.joinMessages.length);

// Get the random join message
const randomJoinMessage = jsonData.joinMessages[randomIndex];

console.log(randomJoinMessage);

// Insert the user's username into the join message
const formattedJoinMessage = randomJoinMessage.replace("{userName}", member.user.username);

console.log(formattedJoinMessage);

const channel = client.channels.cache.get('1174309146816950303'); // #new-beavers
if (channel && channel.type == ChannelType.GuildText) {
channel.send(formattedJoinMessage);
console.log ("message sent");
}
});
client.on(Events.GuildMemberAdd, async (member) => {
if (member.guild.id != GUILD_ID) return;

// Read the JSON file
const jsonData = JSON.parse(readFileSync("messages.json", 'utf8'));

// Get a random join message index
const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * jsonData.joinMessages.length);

// Get the random join message
const randomJoinMessage = jsonData.joinMessages[randomIndex];

console.log(randomJoinMessage);

// Insert the user's username into the join message
const formattedJoinMessage = randomJoinMessage.replace("{userName}", member.user.username);

console.log(formattedJoinMessage);

const channel = client.channels.cache.get('1174309146816950303'); // #new-beavers
if (channel && channel.type == ChannelType.GuildText) {
channel.send(formattedJoinMessage);
console.log ("message sent");
}
});
