Error encountered after upgrading xstate to v5.9.1: TypeError: this.logic.getInitialSnapshot is not a function

[pubudithajayasekara]

Description:
I recently upgraded xstate from version 4.38.3 to version 5.9.1 following the migration guide provided here. However, upon making the necessary changes, I encountered the following error:

TypeError: this.logic.getInitialSnapshot is not a function (it is undefined), js engine: hermes

This error leads to the raise-182bb5c9.cjs.js file in the xstate node module, specifically in the _initState method.

Please always try to share a repro case in a runnable form - either by providing a git repository to clone or a codesandbox. OSS maintainers usually can't afford the time to set up the repro, even if exact steps are given.

Are you using TypeScript? Are there any TypeScript errors when passing the logic into createActor(machine)?

Hey, did you managed to solve this issue? I'm encountering the same problem moving from 4 to 5

@pubudithajayasekara I believe that this is a duplicate of this issue.
