TypeError: Cannot read property 'activeOverlays' of null at BsLoadingOverlayService.stop

[angel1st]

Hi there,
I am trying to use the control in along with Angular Material (1.1.1) and Angular (1.5.8). I am using very basic configuration described here http://bsalex.github.io/angular-loading-overlay/_site/ - Global configuration.

The issues I have:

1. I cannot see the overlay layer
2. I have the error mentioned above TypeError: Cannot read property 'activeOverlays' of null at BsLoadingOverlayService.stop

Please help,
Angel

Same here, angular 1.5.9

Hi! Thank you for reporting the problem.
It is weird, but I can not reproduce it.
Here is a simple example with angular 1.5.9:

Do you have the same setup?

@bsalex - I must admin now it works.
I have a question though - when I installed via bower, I have not loading-overlay-template.html provided and I have to take the one you provided into Plunker example. Could it be easy to use if you have provided as part of the bower package this initial template as well?

Oh, I see.
Yes, a lot of people have the same problem (no default overlay template in the package).
So I think the package should provide one.
The template is also available here https://github.com/bsalex/angular-loading-overlay/blob/gh-pages/loading-overlay-template.html

You could also try to use spinjs integration http://bsalex.github.io/angular-loading-overlay/_site/#examples-spinjs
