No value accessor for form control
You are adding the formControlName
to the label and not the input.
You have this:
<div >
<div class="input-field col s12">
<input id="email" type="email">
<label class="center-align" for="email" formControlName="email">Email</label>
</div>
</div>
Try using this:
<div >
<div class="input-field col s12">
<input id="email" type="email" formControlName="email">
<label class="center-align" for="email">Email</label>
</div>
</div>
Update the other input fields as well.
For anyone experiencing this in angular 9+
This issue can also be experienced if you do not declare your component or import the module that declares the component.
Lets consider a situation where you intend to use ng-select
but you forget to import it Angular will throw the error 'No value accessor...'
I have reproduced this error in the Below stackblitz demo.
For UnitTest angular 2 with angular material you have to add MatSelectModule module in imports section.
import { MatSelectModule } from '@angular/material';
beforeEach(async(() => {
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ CreateUserComponent ],
imports : [ReactiveFormsModule,
MatSelectModule,
MatAutocompleteModule,......
],
providers: [.........]
})
.compileComponents();
}));
If you get this issue, then either
- the formControlName is not located on the value accessor element.
- or you're not importing the module for that element.
