Angularjs error Unknown provider

Question

I'm trying to display the configured values author and version in angular value service in html page.Version code is displayed fine but not the author name Here is the html code

    <!doctype html>
<html lang="en" ng-app="myApp">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>My AngularJS App</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/app.css"/>
</head>
<body>
  <ul class="menu">
    <li><a href="#/view1">view1</a></li>
    <li><a href="#/view2">view2</a></li>
  </ul>

  <div ng-view></div>

  <div>Angular seed app: v<span app-version></span></div>
  <div>Author is : <span app-author></span></div>


  <script src="lib/angular/angular.js"></script>
  <script src="js/app.js"></script>
  <script src="js/services.js"></script>
  <script src="js/controllers.js"></script>
  <script src="js/filters.js"></script>
  <script src="js/directives.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Here is the directive...

angular.module('myApp.directives', []).
  directive('appVersion', ['version', function(version) {
    return function(scope, elm, attrs) {
      elm.text(version);
    };
  }])
  .directive('appAuthor', ['author', function(author) {
    return function(scope, elm, attrs){
        elm.text(author);
    };
  }]);

And here is the service portion where author and version values are configured

    angular.module('myApp.services', []).
  value('version', '0.1')
  .value('author','JIM');

The error i'm getting in developer console is

Error: Unknown provider: authorProvider <- author <- appAuthorDirective

Even I was stuck in same issue, I fixed it yet I kept getting same issue. Note that function getService(serviceName, caller) { if (cache.hasOwnProperty(serviceName)) After fixing issue don't forget to do Ctrl+F5 to clear browser cache. — vikky MCTS

Make sure you are loading those modules (myApp.services and myApp.directives) as dependencies of your main app module, like this:

angular.module('myApp', ['myApp.directives', 'myApp.services']);
