Describe the Bug

I just started to compose a bug report without being able to reproduce the issue outside my local environment when I found the culprit: An innocent space character in one of the parent folder's name.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a folder with a space in it, e.g. mkdir Project\ Name and change into it.

2. Run npm create astro@latest and select 'an empty project', say yes to 'install npm dependencies', say no to 'initialize a new git repository', choose the 'Strict' TypeScript setup, and change into the newly created folder.

3. Append the following lines to src/pages/index.astro:

   <script>
     console.log('Hello, World.')
   </script>

4. Run npm run dev.

5. Visit http://127.0.0.1:3000/ as advertised in the command line.

The following exception is thrown in the CLI, blocking the page from being rendered in the browser.

error   Could not import `/src/pages/index.astro?astro&type=script&index=0&lang.ts`.
  Hint:
    This is often caused by a typo in the import path. Please make sure the file exists.
  Stacktrace:
Error: failed to load module for ssr: /src/pages/index.astro?astro&type=script&index=0&lang.ts
    at instantiateModule (file:///Users/user/Projects/Project%20Name/majestic-mass/node_modules/vite/dist/node/chunks/dep-5605cfa4.js:53281:15)

Note that building the project (running npm run build and then npm run preview) works just fine and yields the expected result. Thus, this seems to be related to esbuild only.

After some work I was able to reproduce the issue on Stackblitz, so the issue is no longer restricted to my local environment.

(I needed to manually replace project name by project%20name as even Stackblitz does not seem to work properly with spaces)

Bumping the priority on this as we're getting many many reports in our support threads and this issue is getting a fair amount of thumb ups

This also happens to me, when trying to update Astro version from 1.6.11 to latest version.
