txt-file-include doesn´t work

Hi strawberry 3.141,
i´ve read your interesting threat with regard to including textfiles.

Your posted solution doesn´t work for me, and im searching why and i don´t find any failure…

MMM-OEBBv2.js:

Module.register("MMM-OEBBv2",{
        defaults: {
                updateInterval: 30 * 60 * 1000 //reads the file every 30 mins
        },

        start: function(){
                this.sendSocketNotification("START", this.config);
        },

        socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
                if(notification === "DATA"){
                        this.dataFile = payload;
                        this.updateDom();
                }
        },

        getDom: function(){
                var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
                if(this.dataFile){
                        wrapper.innerHTML = this.dataFile;
                } else {
                        wrapper.innerHTML = "No Data!";
                }
                return wrapper;
        }
});

node-helper.js:

const NodeHelper = require("node_helper");
const fs= require("fs");

module.exports = NodeHelper.create({
//here comes the part of the nodehelper after the 3 dots as posted above

        socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
                if(notification === "START"){
                        this.config = payload;
                        this.readData();
                        setInterval(() => {
                                this.readData();
                        }, this.config.updateInterval);
                }
        },

        readData: function(){
                //to read a file to do the following
                fs.readFile("daten.txt", "utf8", (err, data) => {
                        if (err) throw err;
                        this.sendSocketNotification("DATA", data);
                });
        }
});

daten.txt:

WB 912 um 13:00 von Bahnsteig 6A-C
S 2 um 13:04 von Bahnsteig 5A-C
REX 4410 um 13:04 von Bahnsteig 8A-C

On the mirror always “No Data!” is shown.
Please help me…

Kind regards

readData: function(){
    fs.readFile("modules/MMM-OEBBv2/daten.txt", "utf8", (err, data) => {
        if (err) throw err;
        this.sendSocketNotification("DATA", data);
    });
 }

@strawberry-3-141 i´ve changed the path in the node-helper.js, but it doesn´t solve my problem…
Are there any other opportunities?

const NodeHelper = require("node_helper");
const fs= require("fs");

module.exports = NodeHelper.create({

        socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
                if(notification === "START"){
                        this.config = payload;
                        this.readData();
                        setInterval(() => {
                                this.readData();
                        }, this.config.updateInterval);
                }
        },

        readData: function(){
                fs.readFile("modules/MMM-OEBBv2/daten.txt", "utf8", (err, data) => {
                        if (err) throw err;
                        this.sendSocketNotification("DATA", data);
                });
        }
});
