emonCMS - DigitalOcean - Message: Uncaught ReferenceError: _lang is not defined

Hi,

I’ve just installed a remote install of EmonCMS on a DigitalOcean Droplet after seeing the instructions - EmonScripts/readme.md at master · openenergymonitor/EmonScripts · GitHub

All appeared to go well and it is up and running, with the exception of an error when trying to create dashboards -

EmonCMS Error

Message: Uncaught ReferenceError: _lang is not defined
Route: Modules/graph/graph.js?v=1
Line: 635
Column:21

Would anyone have any thoughts as to what may be causing this?

I have included the server info below -

This will need to wait until @TrystanLea resurfaces as he did that install.

I’ve uploaded a fix for this to the graph module, change info here: fix missing language array in embed mode · emoncms/graph@8462a5c · GitHub

If you run the updater to pull in the latest it should now work

If you are using any script file and getting "Uncaught ReferenceError: x is not defined " which means ‘x’ is either a variable or a method which you are trying to use before declaring it using var keyword. This means that there is a non-existent variable referenced somewhere. This variable needs to be declared, or you need to make sure it is available in your current script or scope otherwise , it will endup throwing this ‘x’ is not defined error . This usually indicates that your library is not loaded and JavaScript does not recognize the ‘x’.

To solve this error: Load your library at the beginning of all your scripts.

There can be multiple other reasons for this issue:

  • Conflict with Other Libraries
  • Path to your library included is not correct
  • Llibrary file is corrupted
  • Working offline (when you use CDN)
