Webpack error while running the app

Hello,

I am getting the error

TypeError: The ‘compilation’ argument must be an instance of Compilation

When I try to run “yarn rw dev”. This is odd because my app successfully runs on vercel with the same code, I just tried to set it up in a different device locally. I read about this online and saw that it was related to webpack mismatches.

I tried several solutions

  • added a “resolution” to package json
  • specified mismatching versions using “yarn why webpack”
  • deleted and re-installed node_modules

None of these seem to solve the issue. Did anyone face the same issue before? I’d appreciate some help. Thanks!

What version of Redwood are you using?
Redwood has been using Vite instead of Webpack by default for a while now for everything except for Storybook.

Can you provide a reproduction project we can look at?

I realized that I was using a very old version, and the problem was caused due to the incorrect camel case directory I was working in. Thanks!
