Same error:
Cannot add module namespace property '_nuxtConfigFile' to /nuxt.config.js

[rahulparanjapebics]

Cannot add module namespace property '_nuxtConfigFile' to /nuxt.config.js
occurs for nuxt 2.5.1 so we fallback to 2.3.4 but got above error

[aldarund]

please provide a reproduction

[rahulparanjapebics]

@aldarund here is sample reproduction https://codesandbox.io/embed/qz9k4kj8m9

[aldarund]

@rahulparanjapebics its caused by updated esm. Dont mix commonjs and es6 syntax. E.g. dont use require and import in same file ( and module.exports vs export default ). Use imports and export default
