I am using Adonuxt but I don't think that's the problem

Thanks!

Hi. This issue originates from an incompatible module. Please provide a list of the modules that you are currently using.

Temporary solution:

Please only do this if you have an incompatible module and also report us about modules that causing this problem.

- yarn install [email protected]
- npm install [email protected]

hotfix released as 2.6.1 until esm resolves the problem.

[HapLifeMan]

Fixed, thanks! 😊

Do you still want me to publish a list of the modules?

[pi0]

@HapLifeMan Yes please share modules that you are currently using :) It may be useful to fix them as well.

Incompatible module was nuxt-user-agent. I already opened PR over there. Thanks :)

[dseeker]

@pi0 I started getting this error when I moved repos. I'm also using nuxt-user-agent, and when I copy/install the whole project to a new folder it returns this error. I found out if I copy the package-lock file it runs fine, but if I delete it and install from scratch the problem appears, probably related to some version bump of dependencies.

when I update to nuxt 2.6.2 the error goes away but the project stop running on AWS Lambas. It works fine locally but after the new installation the lambdas stop working. I'm able to diff the package-lock files and do see the esm as well a few other modules that were bumped up, but not sure how I would be able to lock esm back to a previous version for all the dependencies.

I still haven't dived into what exactly in this nuxt project failing at the lambdas, I've already disabled nuxt-user-agent but it's not coming back, kind of a bummer since I had just gotten it working for committing into the main repo. but I think it has something to do with

module.exports = { getAllFilms, read, checkMeta, upload }

on a helper library for getting S3 files

left works, right does not (not the only difference, but seems relevant here)

[pi0]

Please upgrade nuxt-user-agent to the latest. It has a fix.

[dseeker]

I did upgrade, using

"nuxt": "2.6.2",

that diff was from the original error, but the fix actually broke the entire project on lambda

[pi0]

@dseeker As reported in standard-things/esm#776 the breaking change happened in [email protected]+. I suggest doing another clean install. If the problem persists maybe pinning ESM to 3.2.20 can help by adding to package.json

[dseeker]

I only get
Cannot GET /
responses now, and the lambda logs show no error

[pi0]

If it didn't help please open a new issue with code of custom server or reproduction

[dseeker]

thanks @pi0 that was indeed the issue.. so it was a cascade effects from late updates
