Troubleshooting

Ensure You have correct Environment

vuepress-theme-hope only supports node version of ^14.18.0 || >=16.0.0.

If the ouput of node -v doesnot satisfy the requirement, you should download and install the LTS version of Node.js.

Also, you should use a package manger satisfying the following requirements:

• npm: >= 8

  Check: npm -v

  Install: npm i -g npm

• yarn: >= 1.22.15

  Check: yarn -v

  Install: npm i -g yarn

• pnpm: >= 7

  Check: pnpm -v

  Install: npm i -g pnpm

Ensure using latest version

Please make sure you are using the latest vuepress and vuepress-theme-hope V2 version, because some bugs you encountered may have been fixed in new versions.

You can update to the latest version by executing the following commands.

pnpm add @vuepress/client@next vuepress@next vuepress-theme-hope vue@latest -E

yarn add vuepress@next vuepress-theme-hope@latest -E

npm i vuepress@next vuepress-theme-hope@latest -E

Note

Any official packages starting with @vuepress/ should be upgrade to the same version as VuePress.

I.E.: if you are using @vuepress/plugin-search and @vuepress/utils , you should ensure they have the same version number as vuepress.

Also, if you're using another third-party plugin, make sure it's compatible with the version of VuePress you're upgrading to.

Ensure having correct deps tree

In some cases, you may generate incorrect dependency tree after upgrading some dependencies, this is because both vuepress and vue have many packages named @vuepress/xxx and @vue/xxx.

To let VuePress work correctly, there should only be one version of @vuepress/xxx @vue/xxx vue and vue-router in the whole project. Multiple versions of a package can cause different parts of the application to use different instances of Vue and the corresponding package, resulting in errors like useXXX() is called without provider.

Please run the following command to make sure your dependency tree is correct.

pnpm i && pnpm up

yarn && yarn upgrade

npm i && npm update

Ensure having correct config

Please confirm that there are no errors in your config file (such as red wavy lines), if so, please modify the config file according to the prompts until you correctly configured VuePress and themes.
