Why does the dashboard try to precache/pull the default files?

[cinderblockgames]

I've removed most of the default files, since they don't seem necessary, but the site is trying to pull them:

• additionnal-page.yml.dist?__WB_REVISION__=...
• config.yml.dist?__WB_REVISION__=...
• config.yml.dist.sample-sui?__WB_REVISION__=...
• custom.css.sample?__WB_REVISION__=...
• manifest.json?__WB_REVISION__=...

Hi @cinderblockgames!

What do you mean by the site is trying to pull them ? I don't see any request to those file in my browser console. Can you give more context? How did you install homer ? using docker ? Did you provide your own config ?

I see them in my browser's developer tools network tab.

Here's my (redacted) config:

I think this are loaded through the serviceworker of the PWA.

I am having the same issue. I installed homer using docker compose and now the service worker tries to precache non-existent files, similar as @cinderblockgames's error.
