Vite build not generating the php_{locale}.json file

[PixNyb]

Running vite build does not generate the php_{locale}.json file and in turn doesn’t allow vite to compile the vue components.

At the start of running vite build the file does show up in the logs, but is nowhere to be found afterwards

Vite config:

import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import laravel from "laravel-vite-plugin";
import vue from "@vitejs/plugin-vue";
import i18n from "laravel-vue-i18n/vite";

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        vue(),
        laravel({
            input: [
                "resources/sass/_main.scss",
                "resources/js/app.js",
                "node_modules/@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.css",
                "node_modules/normalize.css/normalize.css",
            ],
            refresh: true,
        }),
        i18n(),
    ],
    base: "./",
    resolve: {
        alias: {
            vue: "vue/dist/vue.esm-bundler.js",
        },
    },
});

did this happened on vite build or on just vite?

Thanks.

Just vite build, vite works just fine

Can you create a test repo that replicates this problem?
