I've followed the instructions to several different tutorials, using different zip files with different files, including those I'd written myself. I've also followed the instructions for compressing files via the command line interface, but I'm still getting the "TypeError: Cannot read property 'locale' of undefined" error:

I found another discussion about the same problem, but the advice did not help.
Since this is a file I've not written, I have no control over it, nor am I inclined to attempt fixing it.
I've been at this for a couple of weeks, so I would appreciate some assistance here.
