I have a problem trying when i run webpack-dev-server not console error in compilation time but throws the next error in browser when i go to http://localhost:8080/:

Uncaught TypeError: util.inherits is not a function.

is strange beacause works well with webpack without webpack-dev-server. when i debug the error the error is in file webpack:///./~/websocket-driver/lib/websocket/streams.js?875d and the error is this segment:

var Stream = require('stream').Stream,
    util   = require('util');


var IO = function(driver) {
  this.readable = this.writable = true;
  this._paused  = false;
  this._driver  = driver;
};
util.inherits(IO, Stream); // this line

webpack.config.js

[ { devtool: 'eval-source-map',
    resolve: { extensions: [Object], modules: [Object], alias: [Object] },
    module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: [Object] },

 { test: /\.json/, use: [Object] },

  • wild guess.. delete the node_module, npm cache clean and then reinstall – VISHAL DAGA Mar 20 '17 at 16:21
  • wild guess, not works – cristian camilo cedeño gallego Mar 20 '17 at 16:56
  • I have the same basic problem. The only other references I could find were [this other stackoverflow question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43020296/react-share-util-inherits-is-not-a-function-webpack-2) and [this github issue](https://github.com/webpack/webpack/issues/1019) which contains some workarounds, though none worked for me. – Michael Plotke May 02 '17 at 14:01
