Field 'browser' doesn't contain a valid alias configuration

Turned out to be an issue with Webpack just not resolving an import - talk about horrible horrible error messages :(

// I Had to change:
import DoISuportIt from 'components/DoISuportIt';

// to (notice the missing `./`)
import DoISuportIt from './components/DoISuportIt';

I'm building a React server-side renderer and found this can also occur when building a separate server config from scratch. If you're seeing this error, try the following:

  1. Make sure your "entry" value is properly pathed relative to your "context" value. Mine was missing the preceeding "./" before the entry file name.
  2. Make sure you have your "resolve" value included. Your imports on anything in node_modules will default to looking in your "context" folder, otherwise.

Example:

const serverConfig = {
name: 'server',
context: path.join(__dirname, 'src'),
entry: {serverEntry: ['./server-entry.js']},
output: {
    path: path.join(__dirname, 'public'),
    filename: 'server.js',
    publicPath: 'public/',
    libraryTarget: 'commonjs2'
},
module: {
    rules: [/*...*/]
},
resolveLoader: {
    modules: [
        path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules')
    ]
},
resolve: {
    modules: [
        path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules')
    ]
}
};

Just for record, because I had similiar problem, and maybe this answer will help someone: in my case I was using library which was using .js files and I didn't had such extension in webpack resolve extensions. Adding proper extension fixed problem:

module.exports = {
(...)
  resolve: {
    extensions: ['.ts', '.js'],
  }
}

I had the same issue, but mine was because of wrong casing in path:

// Wrong - uppercase C in /pathCoordinate/
./path/pathCoordinate/pathCoordinateForm.component

// Correct - lowercase c in /pathcoordinate/
./path/pathcoordinate/pathCoordinateForm.component
