Vue3 Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token appears in the browser console whenever I reload the page

I am building a website using Vue3, Typescript, Vue router and vite. The app is hosted on an Apache web server. The app builds successfully and works as intended on my local machine.

However, when I move the build to the production server it breaks when the page reloads with the following error: Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token which is coming from the js file that Vue builds. When I take a look at where the error is, it's not human readable. Also when this error happens the web page just shows a blank screen.

So far I've tried:

All of these changes had no effect on the error.

I have tested it on:

I would really appreciate any help as I am at a loss with this one.

Thank you in advance

Solution

  • The error message points to the (invalid) code 1.toString in your javascript file. By searching for this text and 'syntax error' I found this thread.

    It seems that something is re-minifying your code after Vite has minified it first, and that is causing a syntax error. In the above thread it was Cloudflare.

    Try disabling the Cloudflare minification and see if it solves your problem.
