This happens when smart edit is not properly configured. Can you verify that following extensions are added by you

  <extension name='smartedit' />
  <extension name='cmssmartedit' />
  <extension name='cmssmarteditwebservices'/>
  <extension name='cmswebservices' />
  <extension name='permissionswebservices'/>
  <extension name='previewwebservices' />
  <extension name='smarteditaddon'/>
  <extension name='smarteditwebservices' />
  <extension name="cmsbackoffice"/>
  <extension name="personalizationservicesbackoffice"/>
  <extension name="personalizationservices"/>
  <extension name="personalizationcmsbackoffice"/>
  <extension name="previewpersonalizationweb"/>
  <extension name="personalizationcmsweb"/>
  <extension name="personalizationsmartedit"/>
 

After that have done smarteditaddon install . and then added following entries in your project.properties file of storefront

[storefrontName].additionalWebSpringConfigs.smarteditaddon=classpath:/smarteditaddon/web/spring/smarteditaddon-w smarteditaddon.application-context=smarteditaddon-spring.xml smarteditaddon.javascript.paths.responsive=/shared/common/js/webApplicationInjector.js;/shared/common/js/reprocessPage.js;/shared/common/js/adjustComponentRenderingToSE.js;/responsive/common/js/smarteditaddon.js smarteditaddon.css.paths.responsive=/responsive/common/css/smarteditaddon.css

and then run ant npminstall from platform

you also need to run ant build after running ant npminstall

To ensure that all SmartEdit extensions are set up to detect the third-party libraries stored in npmancillary, you must run the ant build command to create a symlink from the SmartEdit extensions to the nodes_module directory and the package.json file in the npmancillary extension.
