CommonChunkPlugin is not a constructor

Question

Getting this error for some strange reason

TypeError: webpack.CommonsChunkPlugin is not a constructor

Other plugins are working fine for me:

    new webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin(),
    new webpack.NoErrorsPlugin(),
    // create global variables accessible on server and client
    new webpack.DefinePlugin({

Answer 1

Because it's not webpack.CommonsChunkPlugin but webpack.optimize.CommonsChunkPlugin
