"preprocessor" undefined
Author: Vishwas-93Created Dec 1, 2025Updated Sep 11, 2026
Hello,
I am currently using MUI Desktop date picker with date-fns adapter and running into a crash only when React App is accessed in Germany. The locale is correctly set in other places.
I looked into the code and we might need a optional chaining in the format function "?" just to avoid the crash caused by the "preprocessor" undefined.
// invoke localize preprocessor (only for french locales at the moment) if (locale.localize?.preprocessor) { parts = locale.localize.preprocessor(originalDate, parts); }
Attaching screenshot for reference.
Any help or workaround would be greatly appreciated.
Regards Vishwas
