Module build failed (from ./node_modules/vue-loader/dist/index.js)

[csteri]

I get this error after running npm run dev and I get this error in the terminal:

ERROR in ./resources/js/erp/components_VueJs/example.vue Module build **failed** (from ./node_modules/vue-loader/dist/index.js): TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'styles') at Object.loader (C:\laragon\www\erp\node_modules\vue-loader\dist\index.js:70:34)

My package.json is:

{
    "private": true,
    "scripts": {
        "dev": "npm run development",
        "development": "mix",
        "watch": "mix watch",
        "watch-poll": "mix watch -- --watch-options-poll=1000",
        "hot": "mix watch --hot",
        "prod": "npm run production",
        "production": "mix --production"
    },

    "devDependencies": {
        "axios": "^0.25",
        "laravel-mix": "^6.0.6",
        "lodash": "^4.17.19",
        "postcss": "^8.1.14",
        "resolve-url-loader": "^5.0.0",
        "sass": "^1.53.0",
        "sass-loader": "^13.0.2",
        "vue-loader": "^17.0.0",
        "vue-template-compiler": "^2.7.2",
        "webpack": "^5.73.0"
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "@fortawesome/fontawesome-free": "^6.1.1",
        "@popperjs/core": "^2.11.5",
        "bootstrap": "^5.1.3",
        "bootstrap-icons": "^1.8.3",
        "vue": "^2.7.2"
    }
}

and webpack.mix.js is:

mix.js('resources/js/erp/app.js', 'public/js/erp')
      .js('resources/js/site/app.js', 'public/js/site')
      .js('resources/js/erp/vueApp.js', 'public/js/erp').vue()
    .postCss('resources/css/erp/app.css', 'public/css/erp', [])
    .postCss('resources/css/site/app.css', 'public/css/site', [])
    .sass("resources/scss/erp/app.scss", "public/css/erp")
    .sass("resources/scss/site/app.scss", "public/css/site")
    .webpackConfig({
        plugins: [
        ],
        resolve: {
        },
        stats: {
            children: true
        }
    });

and app.js

import Vue from 'vue';
window.Vue = require('vue');

Vue.component('example-comp', require('./components_VueJs/example.vue').default);

For installation I used the following commands:
npm install vue@2.x.x
npm install -D vue-loader vue-template-compiler
npm run dev (and here the error appears)

It is a compatibility issue between VueJs2 and vue-loader = 17.0.0

Same issue, how to solve?

[haoqunjiang]

It is a compatibility issue between VueJs2 and vue-loader = 17.0.0

Use vue-loader@15 for Vue.js 2. 16 & 17 are only compatible with Vue 3.

Version 15 works a treat, thanks @sodatea
