Cannot read property ‘settings’ of undefined – jQuery snippet to solve the issue by Anil Labs
Generally, we add the jQuery attribute to add a rule for required like
jQuery code
$( "#attrName" ).rules( "add", "required");
If we use like we will get the issue like below
jQuery error
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'settings' of undefined
at n.fn.init.rules (VM507 jquery.validate.min.js:4)
at log (create:815)
at Object.<anonymous> (create:616)
at Function.each (jquery-2.1.3.min.js:2)
at Object.<anonymous> (create:613)
at j (jquery-2.1.3.min.js:2)
at Object.fireWith [as resolveWith] (jquery-2.1.3.min.js:2)
at x (jquery-2.1.3.min.js:4)
at XMLHttpRequest.<anonymous> (jquery-2.1.3.min.js:4)

So, to resolve this issue we need to change the adding rule to attribute
jQuery code to resolve
setTimeout(function() {
$('#attrName').rules('add', { required: true });
}, 0);
$('#attrName').rules('add', { required: true });
}, 0);
This will resolve your issue. Hope it will solve your issue also.
