Sanity.io [vite] Internal server error: [postcss] Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'config') error

Question

Spinning up the sanity studio gets me this error. The page spins up just fine in local host. Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated

here is the error in full:

This is the contents of my tailwind.config.js file

@type {import('tailwindcss').Config} 
module.exports = {
  content: [
    "./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
    "./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
  ],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [
    require('tailwind-scrollbar')
  ],
}

Answer 1

I ended up creating a tailwind.config.js file in the sanity folder with the following information. It fixed it.

module.exports = {
  content: [
'./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',
'./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',
'./app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',
],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
}

Answer 2

When you create the tailwindcss, Ensure that the content array is not empty, do add the following:

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
module.exports = {
content: [
'./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',
'./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',
'./app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}',

  ],

  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
}
