Error message

msg

What it means

The slim build's jQuery.error helper throws a new Error with the given message — same generic failure mechanism as the full build. This line is merely the throw site; the meaningful information is the message string and the jQuery API that invoked $.error in the stack below this frame.

Solutions

1. Read e.message and the following stack frames to find which jQuery call raised the error; correct the arguments there.
2. Wrap the suspicious jQuery call in try/catch to capture and log the message for diagnosis.
3. If the failure appeared after switching to the slim build, remember ajax/effects APIs are absent — calling removed/undefined helpers can cascade into $.error paths; use the full build or adjust code.

Example fix

// before
$('#box').html(template); // error surfaces via $.error
// after
try {
  $('#box').html(template);
} catch (e) {
  console.error('jQuery (slim) failed:', e.message);
}

if (!isNonEmptyString(input)) throw new Error('Invalid input before jQuery call');
function isNonEmptyString(v) { return typeof v === 'string' && v.length > 0; }

function isStringOrNode(v) { return typeof v === 'string' || (v && v.nodeType === 1); }

try { $('#x').html(markup); } catch (e) { logError('jQuery slim $.error:', e.message, e.stack); }

When it happens

Trigger: Any jQuery (slim) internal path that detects invalid input and calls $.error(message): malformed markup passed to html(), unsupported arguments, or propagated failures inside deferred chains.

Common situations: Debugging a stack whose top frame is this $.error helper; the actual bad call site is the next stack frame, and the specific reason is in e.message.

Understand the failure class

Background: "Must be a positive integer", "Invalid value", "Unsupported": the invalid-argument-value error family, when a library rejects the value you pass — this error's family across 35 libraries.
