Webpack "Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '../webfonts/fa-solid-900.eot' "

.....

Just needed to do some changes in scss files and now it works. {$fa-font-path} is the key. Why just cant be anything in webdev easy.


In my case the error was:

Error: Can't resolve '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/webfonts/fa-solid-900.svg#fontawesome

And I fixed it, adding this to my index.scss

$fa-font-path: '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/webfonts';
@import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/fontawesome';
@import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/solid';
@import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/regular';
@import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/brands';
@import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/v4-shims';

note the "~" in $fa-font-path

and this to my webpack.config

{
  test: /\.(ico|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|eot|otf|webp|svg|ttf|woff|woff2)(\?.*)?$/,
  use: {
    loader: 'file-loader',
    options: {
      name: '[path][name].[ext]',
    },
  },
},
