JavaScript not working for Bootstrap 5 on Rails 7

[umk1]

Hello,
I have started learning Ruby on Rails recently. I tried to install Bootstrap 5 with Rails 7 using this gem.
The bootstrap framework is installed, but JavaScript is not working and no dropdown menu is displayed. I tried with Navbar sample code from bootstrap website (https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.1/components/navbar/ ), but drop-down in the Navbar does not work. Tried on Firefox browser and Google Chrome.

I did installation exactly as per instructions.

1. Added cssbundling-rails to Gemfile with gem 'cssbundling-rails'
2. Run $bundle install
3. Run $rails css:install:bootstrap

Google Chrome terminal gives this error.
Uncaught TypeError: Failed to resolve module specifier "bootstrap". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../".

Thanks.

Sounds like you'll probably need jsbundling-rails the way you're going with JavaScript. Have a look here: https://github.com/rails/jsbundling-rails/

Even after installing jsbundling-rails, components like navbar aren't working.
