Uncaught Error: You're trying to render a component to the document using server rendering but the checksum was invalid.

Hello, when I try to reload a page using browser refresh, its failing to load properly and I see below console errors. The only thing I changed is upgraded the react-engine from 3.4 to 4.4 (and corresponding dependencies).

invariant.js:42 Uncaught Error: You're trying to render a component to the document using server rendering but the checksum was invalid. This usually means you rendered a different component type or props on the client from the one on the server, or your render() methods are impure. React cannot handle this case due to cross-browser quirks by rendering at the document root. You should look for environment dependent code in your components and ensure the props are the same client and server side:
(client) 27"><a href="Mongo" data-reactid="28"><h
(server) 27"><a href="Mongo" class="activeNav" da

@mgmn looks like your component has changed between the server render and client render

Yes, and as I just found out, React 16 will give you a much better error message!
see #192

Thanks @samsel @laurenskling for looking into. But as I said, the only thing I changed is upgrade the "react-engine" from 3.4 to 4.4 and start noticing the error. If I revert it back to 3.4 I do not see any error and my application works fine.

As dependencies for "react-engine" 4.4, I already upgraded "react" to 15.3.2 and that's how I got the above stack. I will try to further increase "react" to 16.0 to see if I get better stack trace.
