[SOLVED] Laravel 6: syntax error, unexpected 'js' (T

Laravel 6: syntax error, unexpected 'js' (T_STRING), expecting ')'

I am adding a JavaScript file in my Laravel 6 application using the asset helper: <script src="{{ asset('js/todolist.js') }}"></script> here is the error I get:

Facade\Ignition\Exceptions\ViewException

syntax error, unexpected 'js' (T_STRING), expecting ')' (View: C:\Dev\Laravel\teacher\resources\views\layouts\base.blade.php)

The JS file is under my public/js folder.

Here's my blade file content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">

            {{ config('app.name', 'Laravel') }}
        @endsection

    </title>

@section('css_bottom')
    <script src="{{ asset('js/dashboard.js') }}"></script>
@endsection
@yield('css_bottom')
<!-- End custom js for this page-->
</body>
</html>

Please help.

UPDATE: added blade file

Solution

There was an error somewhere in my blade file.

I forgot to put the apostrophe and close the parenthesis:

HERE: <script src="{{ asset('js/settings.js }}"></script>

and the error has been reported here:

<script src="{{ asset('js/todolist.js') }}"></script>

After making the correction by adding the apostrophe and parenthese, everything works well.
