Please provide a link to your page or a test case showing the issue so we can help debug.

You could debug the datetime-moment.js plugin to see what is happening on line 43. Looks like its this code:
Place a breakpoint before that and look at

I could but I'm using the CDN from dataTables so they might want to take a look at it, I've reverted to 1.10.11 to fix the issue
There is definitely some changes in that part of the code which doesn't seem to affect this example. It could be helpful if you can either provide a test case to show the issue or some debug information to help them fix the problem.

The code is behind an admin login, impossible for you to access, sorry, I'll try and work it out, thanks for your help
Thanks for your help @kthorngren found the problem
For those that are having the same issue, make sure you are using the most up to date versions of both files
Hello,
I am having this same bug when updated my packages. The issue was introduced by this commit b400e64, which attempts to migrate from $.trim to trim(). In the doc of the first method, you can read :
So, when table has mixed contents (other than string), it will simply fails and causing this error:
It can be fixed by making sure that the input is a string, (modified line 36):
if ( d && typeof d === "string" ) {Can you check it please?
Thank you.
That's interesting, @Amine27 , that shouldn't be causing a problem, and as Kevin said it's not affecting our examples. Are you able to create a test case that demonstrates the issue, please, so we can investigate?

I'm running into this as well. I do have the latest versions of each referenced in the script tags as per user WebCodex above.
I've also added the type checking as suggested by Amine27 within my
columns.render()functions that deal with my dates. While I can debug and watch my dates get handled appropriately by moment.js in the table init, the end result was still thed.trim()is not a function.Putting a breakpoint on that line 43 in datetime-moment all of my tables data was getting passed through there and it was integer data from a column that was tripping the exception.
I added columns.type properties and with some experimentation ended up with types on everything except my dates; and in doing so my dates are now the only table data passing through
$.fn.dataTable.moment. My table loads with my formatted dates and finally sorts appropriately.Me too have this problem, how do you fix it ?
As mentioned above make sure you are using the latest versions. If you just changed versions then maybe you need to clear the browser's cache.
The site examples don't exhibit this problem. To help debug the problem we will need to see your page or a test case replicating the issue.

I have the latest versions, this do not solve the problem.
So far i manually edit the datetime-moment.js, like @Amin27 said, it works ! But if another version is updated... when i use npm update, this will break.
The plugin will check each column to see if all the data in the column matches one of the formats defined using
$.fn.dataTable.moment(). If the column data is not a string, ie, null or a number, the error will occur. You can see in this example that the failure occurs when checking the Age column which is numeric.http://live.datatables.net/yomunago/1/edit
The fix is as @Amine27 posted above. You can save the
datetime-moment.jsfile locally or copy it into your JS to make the change. @allan or @colin will need to make the change for the CDN.Kevin
I've just committed a change required for this. It will be on the CDN with the next release of DataTables.
Regards,
Allan
Still not a release... anyone knows when this will be fixed?
Hopefully in the next couple of weeks. The change is available in the nightly builds. You can find them here.
