Failed to load config from vite.config.js

It's the standard config file laravel creates as follows:

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

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            input: 'resources/js/app.js',
            refresh: true,
        }),
        vue({
            template: {
                transformAssetUrls: {
                    base: null,
                    includeAbsolute: false,
                },
            },
        }),
    ],
});

That's when I get the error... failed to load config from vite.config.js

@Sinnbeck Same error I'm afraid...

And as if by magic... thanks for your help! Should have tried that earlier ;)

Hi, I am having same trouble and could not move forward even after spending hours in this blocker. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My environment:

npm -v => 8.19.2

node -v => 18.7.0

yarn -v => 1.22.19

vite.config.ts

import { defineConfig } from 'laravel-vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'

export default defineConfig({
    server: {
        watch: {
            ignored: ['**/.env/**'],
        },
    },
    resolve: {
        alias: {
            "vue-i18n": "vue-i18n/dist/vue-i18n.cjs.js"
        }
    }
}).withPlugins(
