   Adding a console.log to createDiagnosticForNode with all its arguments prints the following:

   undefined {
     code: 6203,
     category: 3,
     key: '_0_was_also_declared_here_6203',
     message: "'{0}' was also declared here.",
     reportsUnnecessary: undefined,
     elidedInCompatabilityPyramid: undefined
   } undefined globals undefined undefined undefined
   

   nitpick: it's spelled "compatibility"

   It looks like the line that is causing the crash itself is:

   // @ts-check
   // this is a jest.config.js file
   
   const config = makeConfig(/* ... */)
   
   config.globals.__STORYBOOK__ = false // this line
   // commenting it out prevents the crash
   
   module.exports = config

   where the return type of makeConfig is import('@jest/types').Config.InitialOptions.

   We're seeing a similar issue, however, I can't seem to find the cause in our code.

   Jessica Franco (@Jessidhia) did you add more console.log's in other parts to find the file/line?

   I've noticed quite similar (also, looking from stack trace - seemingly different one) issue. I thought that I will better file it as a dedicated issue - #38558. If it will turn out, that it is a duplicate, we can simply close the issue.

   Jessica Franco (@Jessidhia), can you post a precise repro? I tried a few things with the above snippet but can't get it to happen.

    Eli Barzilay (@elibarzilay) this happened to me today as I was setting up a new nextjs project. Basically if your checkout this example or yarn create next-app --example custom-server-typescript custom-server-typescript-app and run yarn dev you get this error:

    If you pin Typescript to 3.8.3 the error goes away. Cheers

    I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, but I tried the following two chunks in an empty directory:

    $ git clone https://github.com/zeit/next.js
    $ cd next.js/examples/custom-server-typescript
    $ npm i
    $ tsc
    

    and

    $ yarn create next-app --example custom-server-typescript custom-server-typescript-app
    $ cd custom-server-typescript-app
    $ yarn dev
    

    Both ran without any errors...

    Eli Barzilay (@elibarzilay) Jens Fosgerau (@Multiply) yeah, it installs Typescript 3.9.3 when I setup the project. I get the error described above and as I said when I switch to 3.8.3 the error goes away.

    I'm using a tsc which is wired to a build from the current master, but just in case, I repeated both of the above after editing package.json and removed the TS line, and repeated with editing it to 3.9.3.

    Still no errors...

    To make this more controllable, I used docker. This is my build file (which doesn't get any errors):

    FROM ubuntu
    
    RUN apt update \
     && apt upgrade -y \
     && apt install -y curl
    
    RUN curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash - \

     && echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list \
     && apt update && apt install -y yarn
    
    RUN mkdir /work
    WORKDIR /work
    
    RUN yarn create next-app --example custom-server-typescript t \
     && cd t \
     && sed -i -e 's/\("typescript": "^\)\(.*\)"/\13.9.3"/' package.json

    Bit late with the response, sorry.
    After applying your patch locally the issue went away for us. (eagerly waiting for it to be included in a release)

    Had the fix been released? I still have the same issue with latest: next 9.4.4, typescript 3.9.5 and ts-node 8.10.2. node -v 12.4.0.
    The same as was mentioned previously: switching to typescript 3.8.3 fixes the problem.

    This is still a problem with TypeScript 3.9.7. Eli Barzilay (@elibarzilay)'s repro fails without any modifications. Unfortunately downgrading 3.8.3 is not an option for me because old versions ironically have another bug. Will we get this problem fixed?

    Eli Barzilay (@elibarzilay) Hi, Downgrading the TypeScript version from latest to 3.8.3 solves the problem but downgrading TS version is not a good option for me as well. Can we expect a fix for this?

    Same thing here, Surjit Sahoo (@SurjitSahoo) . Previously it was working fine, but now throws that error. Did you find out a solution?
    NOTE: My package.json got updated to TS 4.2.4 (cause the ^) and thus the error (some issue with that version I guess..). Editing TS to 4.2 it seems to work fine now.
