TypeError: Cannot convert undefined or null to object React Validation

I have used React validation library

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-validation

If I visit my page from any other page, it does not give any error. but when I refresh the page, it gives an error

TypeError: Cannot convert undefined or null to object

Please suggest an idea if anybody has faced this issue before.

Code:

import React from 'react';

import {
    Card,
    CardBody,
    CardTitle,
    Row,
    Col,
    FormGroup,
    Label,
    Alert
  } from 'reactstrap';
import Input from 'react-validation/build/input';
import Button from 'react-validation/build/button';
import Form from 'react-validation/build/form';
import axios from 'axios';
import api from '../../config/api';
import messages from '../../config/messages';
import Select from 'react-validation/build/select';
import CKEditor from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-react';
import ClassicEditor from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-build-classic';

const required = (value, props,components) => {

    if(components.formReset!=undefined)
    {
        if (!components.formReset[0].value && (!value || (props.isCheckable && !props.checked))) {

        return <span className="text-danger is-visible">{messages.required}</span>;
        }
        else if(components.formReset[0].value)
        {
            return <span className="text-danger is-visible"></span>;
        }
    }

}
;

I was facing the same error using formik

After debugging I came to know I had a typo in the initialValues object name. Make sure you are having the same object for initalValues that you have defined. In my case I had timeCapturesInitialValues object but used timeCapturesInitailValues in the Formik prop.

Really crazy error:

import { Formik, Form, Field } from 'formik';

above required initial values on any cost if you dont want to give initial value initialize it with empty.for example

const initialValues = {
    firstname: "",
    lastname: ""
}

and then in <Formik tag

initialValues={initialValues}

if your return statement is null at any given point this error occurs. Example:

const obj = null;

return(

obj

);

Please check your code .
