1480406 - TypeError thrown during service worker registration

Status: RESOLVED INACTIVE

(Core :: DOM: Service Workers, defect, P2)

Description

[Nicolas Chevobbe [:nchevobbe]]

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Go to https://noop-sw-benchmark.glitch.me/


**Expected results**

The service worker gets registered

**Actual results**

There's the following error in the console: 

TypeError: "ServiceWorker script at https://noop-sw-benchmark.glitch.me/sw.js for scope https://noop-sw-benchmark.glitch.me/ encountered an error during installation." caused by navigator.serviceWorker.register('/sw.js');

This looks like a ServiceWorker wide issue since I get a similar issue on perf-html as well: 

TypeError: ServiceWorker script at https://perf-html.io/sw.js for scope https://perf-html.io/ encountered an error during installation.

This does not happen with a fresh profile.

If it doesn't happen with a fresh profile, presumably some extension is at fault?

Comment 2

[Nicolas Chevobbe [:nchevobbe]]

The only extension I have on this profile is Gecko Profiler.
If I remove it, I still get this bug.
This is not a big deal, but I didn't played with this profile too much, and I wonder how it got borked.

Eden: On your radar, can you investigate?

Yes, I can investigate it.

The glitch page now navigates to 404. I'm closing this as this is old enough, but please reopen if you can get a new repro.
