Usually this error comes if your code has dependency on Underscore.js/LoDash.js . Can you please try validating if its added and loading properly. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13556010/referenceerror-is-not-defined

@sravs  Please use this lodash.underscore as dependencies in the clientlib node if the issue is not resolved yet.

        I fixed it by removing the underscore.js dependency altogether. Added equivalent functions that were used from underscore.js

          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)

                Hi @sravs 

                Please add 'cq.jquery' as dependency and see if it resolves the issue.

                 

                Thanks!
