Unknown provider: $$stateProvider <- $$state (ui.router.compat)

[onsails]

Hello, I am migrating my app from angular-route to angular-ui-router. I removed ngRoute from app dependencies, added ui.router.compat instead of ngRoute, replaces $routeParams by $stateParams. In result when I change path I get error

Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $$stateProvider <- $$state

I am also getting the same error if I inject $state into any controller.

Another problem is that for some reason ng-view does not load content.

I'll take a look when I have time, but you're honestly better off not using the compatibility shim, as it's not really supported anymore and will be dropped shortly.

Thanks!
btw I rewritten my application using $stateProvider, so I am no longer having this issue
