"_synchronizeAllAuthData is not a function" when running in production after 2.9.0 update

[pocketcolin]

Issue Description

After updating to Parse 2.9.0, we started noticing a new error when running Parse.User.current(), but only when running in production. Downgrading to 2.8.0 fixes the issue. The error thrown is:

TypeError: n._synchronizeAllAuthData is not a function
  at Object.currentUser (ParseUser.js:1266)

Steps to reproduce

1. Run a web app using the Parse SDK v2.9.0 in production (NODE_ENV=production)
2. Successfully authenticate as user using Parse.User.logIn method
3. Reload the web page and trigger Parse.User.current()

Expected Results

Should return a Parse.User object with the current user.

Actual Outcome

Throws error: "_synchronizeAllAuthData is not a function"

I had this issue today, it only occurred once i deployed the code to a docker container, running locally on the React webpack dev it didn't happen.

Specs of the failed system were

Parse-server 2.9.0
Express 4.17.1
node v12.13.0
Alpine Linux
React 16.11.0

Error thrown was
"_synchronizeAllAuthData is not a function"

With a fresh browser you could call the login and make queries, on refresh it would throw the error until you clear the localStorage.

[pocketcolin]

So we also only saw it after we actually deployed the code but, after further investigation, we found that it was related to the NODE_ENV variable which, when serving the app locally, defaults to "development". I only can confirm this with Vue but I'd be curious if you get the same error locally if you set your mode to production when running it locally.

Getting the same error in production:

TypeError: t._synchronizeAuthData is not a function at

Uncaught (in promise) Error: XMLHttpRequest failed: {}

[stage88]

I am getting something similar, not sure if related. This happens in a production build of an iOS app, regardless if deployed on device or simulator.

XMLHttpRequest failed: {"line":519,"column":4087,"sourceURL": "/Users/sam/Library/Developer/ CoreSimulator/Devices/ IE6DBED1-8CAD-4A6E-84FF- E352C4DBA528/data/Containers/ Bundle/Application/ B359A263-9AC8-4021-8E23-106D92 C20143/AusTVStaging.app/ main.jsbundle"}

I extracted line 519 from the bundle, on column 4087 (marked below with "<---") is the following method:

request: function(t, n, u, l) {
        l = l || {};
        var p = s.default.get("SERVER_URL");
        "/" !== p[p.length - 1] && (p += "/"), (p += n);
        var c = {};
        if (u && "object" == typeof u) for (var E in u) c[E] = u[E];
        "POST" !== t && ((c._method = t), (t = "POST")),
          (c._ApplicationId = s.default.get("APPLICATION_ID"));
        var T = s.default.get("JAVASCRIPT_KEY");
        T && (c._JavaScriptKey = T),
          (c._ClientVersion = s.default.get("VERSION"));
        var y = l.useMasterKey;
        if ((void 0 === y && (y = s.default.get("USE_MASTER_KEY")), y)) {
          if (!s.default.get("MASTER_KEY"))
            throw new Error(
              "Cannot use the Master Key, it has not been provided."
            );
          delete c._JavaScriptKey, (c._MasterKey = s.default.get("MASTER_KEY"));
        }
        s.default.get("FORCE_REVOCABLE_SESSION") && (c._RevocableSession = "1");
        var S,
          O = l.installationId;
        O && "string" == typeof O
          ? (S = Promise.resolve(O))
          : (S = s.default.getInstallationController().currentInstallationId());
        return S.then(function(t) {
          c._InstallationId = t;
          var n = s.default.getUserController();
          return l && "string" == typeof l.sessionToken
            ? Promise.resolve(l.sessionToken)
            : n
            ? n.currentUserAsync().then(function(t) {
                return t

                  : Promise.resolve(null);
              })
            : Promise.resolve(null);
        })
          .then(function(n) {
            n && (c._SessionToken = n);
            var s = JSON.stringify(c);
            return v.ajax(t, p, s, {}, l).then(function(t) {
              var n = t.response,
                s = t.status;
              return l.returnStatus ? f({}, n, { _status: s }) : n;
            });
          })
          .catch(function(t) {
            var n;
            if (t && t.responseText)
              try {
                var s = JSON.parse(t.responseText);
                n = new o.default(s.code, s.error);
              } catch (s) {
                n = new o.default(
                  o.default.INVALID_JSON,
                  "Received an error with invalid JSON from Parse: " +
                    t.responseText
                );
              }
            else
              n = new o.default(
                o.default.CONNECTION_FAILED,

              );
            return Promise.reject(n);
          });
      }

I downgraded to 2.8.0 and issue is now gone.

Hey guys the issue is caused by #978

Looks like this doesn't like minified code (ParseUser doesn't exist as it has been minified to a variable like 'e'). We could revert this or someone can try a PR.

[dplewis]

I opened a PR #999.

Can you see if it works for you?

[pocketcolin]

Can confirm, PR #999 fixed the issue we were seeing.

[RaschidJFR]

I've updated to 2.9.1 but the problem persists. So I rolled back to 2.8.0, the problem is fixed for me.

[dplewis]

@RaschidJFR did you try clearing your cache / refresh the browser?

[RaschidJFR]

Same problem even in different browser and incognito mode

[dplewis]

@RaschidJFR Are you receiving the same errors as above? Also are you using a Parse.User subclass?
