do you have a
'use client'
directive on the page?
Ichneumonid wasp
yes
is that the reason?


Asian black bear
no, you need it there

Ichneumonid wasp
for sure thanks, i still dont know what could be giving this error though

Asian black bear
yarn, npm, or pnpm?

Ichneumonid wasp
npm

Asian black bear
Actually everything looks right
I would delete
node_modules
and .next/
and hope it magically fixed the problem

Ichneumonid wasp
so by deleting those 2 directories will help?
why is that?

Asian black bear
I mean, it won't not help

@Asian black bear Actually everything looks right

Ichneumonid wasp
yea thats what im saying

Asian black bear
because the issue could be that either the next cache directory/dev server is in an invalid state (which has been a FREQUENT problem for me lately after all of their speedy caching improvments)
or it could be that the packages are somehow installed wrong/or have been tainted, such that running
npm install
again will fix themactually, I have been particularly been having trouble with the dev server seeing an error like that, and then literally ignoring future changes to the files

i have done this already but to no avail

Ichneumonid wasp
yes exactly and its super frustrating

Asian black bear
restarting the dev server usually fixes it for me
but I have had to wipe the .next directory as well
At Vercel they dogmatically insist caching can fix all performance issues, and with the last few releases of next the changelogs have talked a lot about "speed improvments"

The issue was that when I committed, my main branch and master branch didn’t have the same code
So I had to merge both via terminal and it worked

Asian black bear
Oh that is a weird one, package manager mismatches in branches is a nightmare

Ichneumonid wasp
this is the project im working on

Asian black bear
So smooth

Ichneumonid wasp
seriously? the data is for trees
in nyc

printing stuff on a map in a way that doesn't suck seems to be really hard
I have used enough terrible map widgets to know
