Is this a bug report?

Yes

After running react-script for a while, I get an exception thrown with the stacktrace:

/Users/will/Code/collect/node_modules/webpack/lib/Stats.js:221
                                        text += `\n @ ${current.readableIdentifier(requestShortener)}`;
                                                                ^

I also had this issue, though I'm not using create-react-app, just webpack-dev-server.

It seems be working after changing the devtool option to something else, and then back again, in the webpack config & freeing up some RAM

Node: 8.9.5 OS: Win 7

Very weird -- we're upgrading to webpack 4 soon and discontinuing use of webpack-dev-server, so hopefully this goes away in 2.x.

Also experiencing this:

Behaviour exhibits itself after seemingly random amount of time after running npm start, abridged error:

\node_modules\webpack\lib\Stats.js:221
    text += `\n @ ${current.readableIdentifier(requestShortener)}`;

Is this still a thing thats happening?

jmcgrory commented 4 years ago

@eddiemonge unfortunately yes

vgjenks commented 1 year ago

I'm suddenly having this problem and have no clue why. The error is not helpful. It just breaks on a useEffect() call that hasn't failed me for over a year now. My project is DOA until I muddle my way through this issue.
