Can't resolve "c is not a constructor" error

I'm trying to build a very very basic "proof of concept" app using ExtJS but i'm having a very hard time.

All i want is two grids getting their data from a remote JSON file, but no matter what i do i keep on getting the error that's in the subject.

Here is my simple code:

app.js:

Ext.Loader.setConfig({enabled:true});

Ext.application({
    name: 'GeoSniffer',
    autoCreateViewport: true,
    models: ['Location', 'Client'],    
    stores: ['Locations', 'Clients'],
});

Viewport.js

Ext.define('GeoSniffer.view.Viewport', {
    extend: 'Ext.container.Viewport',
    layout: 'fit',

    requires: [
        'GeoSniffer.view.ClientsList',
        'GeoSniffer.view.LocationsList'
    ],

    initComponent: function() {
        this.items = {
            layout: {
                type: 'hbox',
                align: 'stretch'
            },
            items: [{
                width: 250,
                xtype: 'panel',
                id: 'west-region',
                layout: {
                    type: 'vbox',
                    align: 'stretch'
                },
                items: [{
                    xtype: 'locationslist',
                    flex: 1
                },{
                    xtype: 'clientslist',
                    flex: 1             
                }]
            }]
        };

        this.callParent();
    }
});

Client.js:

Ext.define('GeoSniffer.model.client', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
    fields: [
        'ip',

When using the loader, make sure you are running with ext-all-dev.js (or ext-dev.js) not -debug. -dev will report loader errors, but -debug will not. This type of problem is a pain to track down as the application grows, but dev will report it right away (in your console).

I have only seen this tidbit mentioned once, but it has saved me days of debugging.
