Site crashes with error after installing module

Problem/Motivation

I'm using Drupal Core 11 and Drupal CMS 1.2.2. When I install this module, the site stops working and I get an error page (visible by verbose setting).

The website encountered an unexpected error. Try again later.

Steps to reproduce

Install Drupal CMS using starter kit recipe. Require this module. I didn't even enable the module, I just required it and cleared the cache.

    I tried removing this module using 'composer remove'. I cleared cache and the error is still there, so now I have some doubt about this module being the cause. It happened right after I required it, so I'm at a loss.

    hello, if you haven't enabled the module (just required using composer), then this cannot be the cause of your issue.
    but when you did the composer require command, maybe you have updated some already enabled extensions in your drupal install.
    From the trace i saw here in the issue, it looks like you have an SDC component with a "bad" definition. BAd in a sense that the component validator is raising an exception.

    you can try sdc_devel module to help, i would advice to go to drupal slack too just in case.

    I just confirmed doing the composer require command for this module, then clearing cache caused this issue. Prior to this step, the site was working fine.

    Also prior to this step, I installed the Civic Theme. Perhaps there is a conflict.

    This appears to be due to a conflict with Civic Theme or one of its dependencies. I don't think it's inherently an issue with this module, but it would take some testing.

    Pierre will be creating an issue for Civic Theme. I'm not finding any issues with the modules that Civic Theme requires. You can close :)
