Missing workbox directory in public/javascript?

installation

Hey there,

while hunting down some weird outages that we see on our forums, I was also checking the nginx logs within the app container. I haven’t checked them for a while now so I can’t say if those are there for longer but I see errors regarding missing Javascript files in a directory that doesn’t at all exist on my installation.

"/var/www/discourse/public/javascripts/workbox/workbox-core.prod.js" 
"/var/www/discourse/public/javascripts/workbox/workbox-cacheable-response.prod.js" 
"/var/www/discourse/public/javascripts/workbox/workbox-routing.prod.js" 
"/var/www/discourse/public/javascripts/workbox/workbox-strategies.prod.js" 
"/var/www/discourse/public/javascripts/workbox/workbox-sw.js"

These are just some examples. I couldn’t find the on the github either and was wondering what causes these issues. I’d feel more comfortable with error logs not being spammed :slight_smile:

Any idea?

EDIT: I’m running 3.2.0.beta1 btw and I can also see those missing files in the browsers console…

Workbox appears to have to do with caching, I think.

How recently did you upgrade? There could be some bug around it, but I think we might need more information

I’ve only updated the day before I posted.

To my reasearch workbox seems to have to do with PWA and be looked for with Chrome/Chromium browsers.

What more information do you need?
