str.match is not a function

Seeing the above error when trying to render any angualr control inside and ng-template as e-pane content. Even the samples do not work. Any help would be appreciated.

Have not had issues rendering other controls.

Cheers

Mark

Code and markup is as in the linl splitter example code

Hi Mark,  
  
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.  
  
We were able to reproduce the reported issues while using ng-template content in Splitter panes. This issue occurs due to installing duplicate packages in your application. We suggest you to run the below command to remove the duplicate packages and re-run the application to resolve this issue.  
  
> npm dedupe  
   
  
Could you please check the above documentation and get back to us if you need any further assistance on this?  
   
Regards,  
Vinoth Kumar S

Thanks a lot.

Hi Jose,  
 
Good day to you. 
 
We suspect that some duplicate packages might be installed in your ‘@syncfusion’ folder of ‘node_modules’. Please follow the steps provided in the following the below steps to overcome the reported behavior.  
 
1.       Delete package.lock.json file from your application.

Hi thanks for the response.The error went away, but my grid toolbar isn't visible. Double clicking a row also does not open the editor window. I don't have a way of getting to the edit or add window. I've attached the package-lock.json as requested. This is the code I am using in my project- https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/demos/#/material/grid/dialog-reactive-form

KK Kalyan Kumar October 7, 2020 07:33 AM UTC

Followed all the steps, still facing the issue. It is not possible to use the same version to all the syncfusion components. Getting error of no matching version found.
Could you please respond back quickly?


RR Rajapandi Ravi Syncfusion Team October 7, 2020 12:29 PM UTC

Hi Kalyan, 

Your reported problem “str.match is not a function” occurs only if duplicate packages are installed in ‘@syncfusion’ folder of ‘node_modules’ in your application. If you are facing the error “Getting error of no matching version found” like this, we suggest you to define ‘*’ instead of defining package version.  So please follow the steps provided below to resolve this,  

  • Delete package.lock.json file from your application.  
  • Remove the @syncfusion package folder from the node_modules.
  • Use same version or “*”(Installs the latest packages) for all Syncfusion components in package.json file.  
  • Then install the NPM packages.  
           
Package.json 
 
"dependencies": {  
    "@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids": "*", 
    "@syncfusion/ej2-base": "*", 
    "@syncfusion/ej2-data": "*", 
     .  .  .  .  .  .  .  . 
     .  .  .  .  .  .  .  . 
  } 
 


Local Grid sample with latest packages for your reference, 


Please get back to us if you require any further assistance. 

Regards, 
Rajapandi R

Hi Gautam,


It has come to our attention that there may be redundant packages in the '@syncfusion' directory within your node_modules. To rectify the issue, kindly follow the steps outlined below:


1. Delete the 'package-lock.json' file from your application.

2. Remove the '@syncfusion' package directory from 'node_modules'.

3. Ensure all components in the 'package.json' file are of the same version.

4. Proceed to install the packages anew.


For detailed instructions, please refer to the User Guide (UG) at the following link:


https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/common/how-to/update-npm-package


After completing these steps, if the issue persists, please reach out to us with the 'package-lock.json' file and a sample that replicates the issue for further assistance.


For your reference, this issue has previously been discussed in the forums linked below:
