Troubleshooting Chunk Load Error

The AB Tasty JavaScript tag is divided in multiple small JavaScript files (called chunks):

• Main tag entry file - The file to which the script tag in index.html points to

• Other tag helper files - The files which are imported by the main entry tag file whenever required.

This is done on purpose to improve performance, time load and data usage of the AB Tasty JavaScript tag.

What is the Chunk Load Error?

The Chunk Load Error occurs when the browser encounters an error in fetching some JavaScript files, which were dynamically imported.

What Causes the Chunk Load Error?

There’s a couple of reasons you may have encountered this error:

• Antivirus, browser extensions, proxies, or ad blocking software that may be modifying the file contents or even blocking the file to be downloaded.

• The browser is not able to find and/or download the chunk file, maybe because the file does not exist, but also because of the hundreds of reasons for internet failure (proxies, firewalls, outages etc.).

• The browser is able to download the chunk file, but the downloaded file is an outdated one.

How to Fix Chunk Load Error?

The most simple way to resolve it is to clear your browser cache (and also restart it for good measure) and try again. If the error was because your browser had cached older files, this should fix the issue.

If it still fails, no magic solution, something on client side (antivirus, browser extensions, proxies, ad blocking software, etc.) is preventing the tag to download the other tag helper files.
