Bug: Cannot read property 'status' of undefined

Inertia doesn’t handle cases when a request fails without a response (e.g. no network).

In that case the error.response is null. https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia/blob/70b6bda4f23061558d48f91a95baaa9062b9e0bb/src/inertia.js#L83

Suggestion before line 83:

} else if (!error.response) {
    Progress.stop()
     // Should the user be notified somehow?
}

Thanks for reporting this. I agree, we need a better solution here. I plan to get back into some serious Inertia development in June, and I’ll try and tackle this at that time. 👍

So I believe this has been corrected now. In the event that there is no response, the promise will simply fail, without causing another error.

Plus, you can now catch these errors using the new event system:

import { Inertia } from '@inertiajs/inertia'

Inertia.on('error', event => {
  console.log(`An unexpected error occurred during an Inertia visit.`)
  console.log(event.detail.error)

  // Prevent the error from being thrown
  event.preventDefault()
})
