One potential work-around is to use the desktop app:

session = fo.launch_app(dataset, desktop=True)

I enconutered the exactly the same issue above.

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19043 Build 19043 Chrome Version 105.0.5195.127 (Official Build) (64-bit)

conda (pip) packages: pip_list_cv_general.txt With the pip list above, desktop version does not work either.

After I upgraded my env with the following cmds

pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
pip install --upgrade fiftyone
pip install --upgrade fiftyone[desktop]

Now desktop works fine, though the web version on my local machine still complains about plain text javascript loading (script tag with type=module).

Hello all, pardon the delay. We will work on a patch.

Note that this issue can be addressed by ensuring the mimetypes package returns correct types. Some discussion can be found here

I am facing the same issue and none of the above solutions or workaround worked. The desktop version is also not working as expected.

[barney2074]

I'm having the same problem i.e blank browser, and for the desktop version- nothing happens

[geniusfoever]

It seems still not fixed

[Ceazy-Gentleman]

I found a solution for this bug.

I have the same problem, but the desktop version works for me.

I tried all the above solutions, but none of them worked. It did point me in the right direction and after spending hours on it, I finally figured out the solution. Hoping it would help others too.

You have to change Registry settings for two keys. Open the Registry Editor and

1. Go to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.js and change Content Type to application/javascript
2. Go to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.js and change Content Type to application/javascript.

Then just restart your shell or jupyter kernel, and the app should start working on localhost. Make sure you force reload the app (Ctrl + Shift + R) to get rid of cached contents.

Hi @ajaymaity , this is what i see. How do i modify the Content Type?

Try adding a new key

Thanks for the help. I'm not very familiar with this so please guide me along. I've added new key as shown below and clicked around, the only editable field is "Data", not "Type". May I know if there's anything else i should amend? I've restarted my computer but it seems like the issue is still around (blank page of localhost:5151 saying Not Found. For fiftyone v0.21.6)

For Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.js:

For Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.js:

2. application/javascript

@JoyLinWQ It's not a new key but a new "string value". If you just want to edit, double-click the existing string value name.
