I wanted to try out SvelteKit on MacOs 11.5.2. Using node v16.13.1, npm 8.1.2.
I have installed the SvelteKit as per original guidance:
npm init svelte@next my-app cd my-app npm install npm run dev -- --open Then, when localhost:3000 opens, I get this error:
**Error: request.query has been replaced by request.url.searchParams** at Object.get (file:///Web/Svelte_30-12-21/my-app/node_modules/@sveltejs/kit/dist/ssr.js:1753:12) at Object.handle (/Web/Svelte_30-12-21/my-app/src/hooks.ts:10:30) at respond (file:///Web/Svelte_30-12-21/my-app/node_modules/@sveltejs/kit/dist/ssr.js:1764:30) at svelteKitMiddleware (file:///Web/Svelte_30-12-21/my-app/node_modules/@sveltejs/kit/dist/chunks/index.js:4577:28) What could be the problem?

I ran into the same problem. In src/hooks.js replace
const method = request.query.get('_method');
with
const method = request.method;
If you are using npm init svelte@next my-app and using the demo app, you are also going to run into a problem in Header.svelte.
replace
<li class:active={$page.path === '/'}><a sveltekit:prefetch href="/">Home</a></li> <li class:active={$page.path === '/about'}><a sveltekit:prefetch href="/about">About</a></li> <li class:active={$page.path === '/todos'}><a sveltekit:prefetch href="/todos">Todos</a></li> with
<ul> <li class:active={$page.url.pathname === '/'}><a sveltekit:prefetch href="/">Home</a></li> <li class:active={$page.url.pathname === '/about'}> <a sveltekit:prefetch href="/about">About</a> </li> <li class:active={$page.url.pathname === '/todos'}> <a sveltekit:prefetch href="/todos">Todos</a> </li> </ul> The issue has been introduced in a commit made earlier today and reported. It has been fixed already, run npm update or delete your node_modules directory and reinstall.
In my case (SvelteKit next 160) it was different than in @klequis answer. The src/hooks.js contained this block of code
The solution to this is actually removing this if block altogether.
I removed it and I confirmed that this assignment is not needed anymore by logging the output console.log(request.method) output: GET
Untested code.
// TODO const searchParams = new URL(event.request.url).searchParams; if (searchParams.has('_method')) { event.request = new Request({ ...event.request, method: searchParams.get('_method').toUpperCase()||''}) ; }
