Why do I recieve both "$jQval is undefined" and "$.validator.unobtrusive is undefined" when using RequireJS?

This has had me puzzled for a few hours now. When the script is in a non-requirejs javascript file it works fine. When I use it with RequireJS it fails to work and gives me the error messages in the question title (though the firebug console).

I was just trying to get it to "work" with RequireJS before attempting to refactor into a module.

The Html is rendering correctly. The scripts are loading correctly. Also, I'm using the require-jquery.js bundle download, which is referenced in the layout template across all pages.

main.js: 

require.config({
   paths: {
       "maximum-filesize": "modules/validation/maximum-filesize"
   }
});

require(["maximum-filesize", "domReady!"], function (maxFileSize) {
});

maximum-filesize.js

require.config({
paths: {
    "jquery-validate": "libs/jquery/jquery.validate",
    "jquery-validate-unobtrusive": "libs/jquery/jquery.validate.unobtrusive"
    }
});

define(["jquery", "jquery-validate", "jquery-validate-unobtrusive", "domReady!"], function ($) {

    $.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.add(
        'filesize', ['maxsize'], function(options) {
            options.rules['filesize'] = options.params;

            if (options.messages) {
                options.messages['filesize'] = options.message;
            }
        });

        $.validator.addMethod('filesize', function (value, element, params) {
        if (element.files.length < 1) {
            // No files selected
            return true;
        }

        if (!element.files || !element.files[0].size) {
            // This browser doesn't support the HTML5 API
            return true;
        }

        return element.files[0].size < params.maxsize;
        }, '');
});

Edit 1

I just tried commenting out all of the above code, and replaced it with a simple:

 $('#Name').val("Hello");

This rendered "Hello" correctly in the #Name textbox, so JQuery is working.

You should use requires shim option to tell requires to load jquery before jquery validate. Otherwise load order is undefined.

Another possible problem is calling requirejs.config 2 times. Requirejs has problems with merging configs
