Reproduction
Describe the bug
The dev server doesnt start with Nuxt 4.6.2 and compatibilityVersion: 5
[nitro] ERROR RollupError: ../../node_modules/.bun/@nuxtjs+i18n@10.6.0+76ccdd62dc937518/node_modules/@nuxtjs/i18n/dist/runtime/shared/utils.js (1:9): "useRuntimeConfig" is not exported by "virtual:#imports", imported by "../../node_modules/.bun/@nuxtjs+i18n@10.6.0+76ccdd62dc937518/node_modules/@nuxtjs/i18n/dist/runtime/shared/utils.js".
import { useRuntimeConfig } from "#imports";
^
import { isString } from "@intlify/shared";
export function useRuntimeI18n(nuxtApp, event) {
Additional context
With compatibilityVersion: 5, Nuxt 4.6 turns Nitro auto imports off by default, so Nitro's import presets (including useRuntimeConfig) are removed from the server-side #imports but @nuxtjs/i18n is still importing from #imports
Fix
Replace imports from #imports with explicit imports from nuxt/server. E.g. see https://github.com/nuxt/image/pull/2281/changes#diff-8536b4cc99b3062f0c84a88d2b6c159d07052cd7736ab567b710f57e341b4cfa
Workaround
Until this issue is fixed, set in nuxt.config:
experimental: {
nitroAutoImports: true, // TODO: Remove when this is resolved: https://github.com/nuxt-modules/i18n/issues/4175
}
