"Loading Search Panes..." But no search panes load

Minerva Research and Development LLC

It's a very simple project. I get the following: "Loading Search Panes...". But no search panes appear.

<script>
    var table;

    $(document).ready(function () {
        let table = new DataTable('#example', {
            
           
            layout: {
                top1: 'searchPanes'
            },

            dom: 'PBlfrtip',

            searchPanes: {
                viewTotal: true,
                layout: 'columns-3',
                columns: [2, 3, 4],
                threshold: 1
            },
            
            }
        )

      //  table.searchPanes.rebuildPanes();

    });
</script>
<div class="text-center">
