Error: cannot call methods on autocomplete prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'destroy'

Question

I am using ajax-solr. It works fine with jquery-ui-1.8.*. But when I upgrade it to jquery-1.10.* it gives me this exception: cannot call methods on autocomplete prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'destroy'

Accepted Answer

I got the answer to it in the initialization of autocomplete widget...just add

```
$(this.target).find('input').autocomplete();
```

This will initialize the autocomplete widget this happened because in 1.10.* .Jquery has added error messages for usage of functions without proper initialization whereas it was not there in previous versions.
