🎯 Changes

Fixes #3327

Improve reload behavior on lazy chunk loading error.

When the module for a lazy chunk 404's, typically caused by a deploy since the
last page load, lazyRouteComponent reloads the module to pick up the new
build. To avoid a reload-loop, we store the error message in sessionStorage
and don't reload if we've already "used up" the reload for that error.

This approach works very well on Chrome and Firefox, where the error is unique
to the missing module, meaning if another deploy happens during the same
session, we get a new error and can have another reload.

On Safari however, that error message is very plan, just "Importing a module
script failed." So any chunk loading error causes future deploys to throw
without a reload for that session because the errors are not unique per failed
module.

The solution I chose is to clear the error on a successful recovery. This still
prevents the reload loop, because if we don't recover successfully, the key is
still there and we won't reload. But it means that in Safari, the error is
cleared, and we can reload on the next chunk error in the same session.

My original strategy was to key not by the error message but by the import name,
but this has an edge case that could show up with certain bundlers. Namely, if
import names are deterministic, an import could 404, trigger a reload, then 404
again on a future deploy in the same session. The lazyRouteComponent would
view that as a reload loop and throw the 404. In my research, this could happen
with certain configurations of webpack.

I verified my approach by first reproducing the error in Safari, and then I
tried with the fix. Also tested in Chrome to ensure the approach works there.

✅ Checklist

🚀 Release Impact

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved recovery from stale lazy-loaded route chunks after deployments across React, Solid, and Vue routers.
    • Prevented repeated reload loops when browsers report identical module-loading errors, including Safari.
    • Successfully recovered modules now reset reload protection, allowing future stale-chunk recovery during the same session.
  • Tests

    • Added end-to-end coverage for stale chunk recovery in Chromium and Safari-compatible WebKit browsers.
    • Added coverage for sequential deployments and successful recovery state reset.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

lazyRouteComponent now uses shared router-core reload helpers. The helpers derive keys from importer source, prevent reload loops, track pending reloads, and clear state after successful recovery. React, Solid, Vue, and WebKit tests use the updated flow.

Stale chunk reload guard

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared reload guard state
packages/router-core/src/utils.ts, packages/router-core/src/index.ts, packages/router-core/tests/module-not-found-reload-key.test.ts
Router core derives session-storage keys from importer source, tracks pending reloads, clears keys after successful imports, exports the helpers, and tests module isolation and recovery.
Framework adapter integration
packages/react-router/src/lazyRouteComponent.tsx, packages/solid-router/src/lazyRouteComponent.tsx, packages/vue-router/src/lazyRouteComponent.tsx
Lazy route components use shared helpers to start reloads, suspend while reloads are pending, and clear reload state after successful imports.

The end-to-end suite runs in WebKit and validates sequential stale-chunk recovery and guard clearing. The changeset records patch releases.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 72dac

This change improves stale lazy-chunk recovery across deployments, but an importer-key collision could suppress a needed reload and the Safari recovery path is not concretely demonstrated after reload. Resolve these concerns before merging.

Model and assert successful recovery after the reload.

This assertion only verifies that one guard key exists. The route stays in staleRoutes, so its chunk continues to return 404 during the automatic reload. The test can pass even if the reload never reaches a working lazy route.

Fail each selected chunk once, allow the next document load to fetch it, and assert that the route renders after each automatic reload. Keep the guard-count assertion to verify loop prevention.

Moving this PR to draft while I make some changes. Basically, there are circumstances where the filename (used as the key) would be the same between builds (if using webpack rather than vite) causing this same error to show up in safari and also in Chrome et al.

To avoid this regression and fix that edge case in Safari, I'm going to clear the key from session storage after a successful reload.

SethThoburn requested a review from Sheraff September 5, 2026 13:31
When the module for a lazy chunk 404's, typically caused by a deploy since the
last page load, `lazyRouteComponent` reloads the module to pick up the new
build. To avoid a reload-loop, we store the error message in `sessionStorage`
and don't reload if we've already "used up" the reload for that error.

This approach works very well on Chrome and Firefox, where the error is unique
to the missing module, meaning if another deploy happens during the same
session, we get a new error and can have another reload.

On Safari however, that error message is very plan, just "Importing a module
script failed." So any chunk loading error causes future deploys to throw
without a reload for that session because the errors are not unique per failed
module.

The solution I chose is to clear the error on a successful recovery. This still
prevents the reload loop, because if we don't recover successfully, the key is
still there and we won't reload. But it means that in Safari, the error is
cleared, and we can reload on the next chunk error in the same session.

My original strategy was to key not by the error message but by the import name,
but this has an edge case that could show up with certain bundlers. Namely, if
import names are deterministic, an import could 404, trigger a reload, then 404
again on a future deploy in the same session. The `lazyRouteComponent` would
view that as a reload loop and throw the 404. In my research, this could happen
with certain configurations of webpack.

I verified my approach by first reproducing the error in Safari, and then I
tried with the fix. Also tested in Chrome to ensure the approach works there.

This is a pretty expensive change at +225B gzip for the react.minimal scenario, could we get something smaller? (the bundle size benchmark and skill are both in the codebase, agents are pretty good at lowering that). We're always aiming for 0 or negative of course, but any reduction would be appreciated.

@Sheraff, pushed an updated commit that benchmarks at +13 for react-router.minimal. It looks like before it was +44, not +225, but I think it's less bad now regardless.

Important

At least one additional CI pipeline execution has run since the conclusion below was written and it may no longer be applicable.

Nx Cloud is proposing a fix for your failed CI:

We fix the two failing WebKit e2e tests by adding a waitForReload helper that polls performance.getEntriesByType('navigation')[0].type until it confirms the reload navigation has fully landed before calling page.goto(). On WebKit, location.reload() is deferred so the guardCount poll resolves while the reload is still pending, causing the subsequent page.goto() to race with it and throw "Navigation interrupted by another navigation." Adding await waitForReload(page) after each guardCount assertion ensures the reload completes before the test proceeds, fixing the conflict on WebKit without impacting Chromium where the reload already finishes before the poll resolves.

Tip

✅ We verified this fix by re-running tanstack-router-e2e-react-basic-file-based-code-splitting:test:e2e.

what if the importer is wrapped in a factory? something like that

function lazyPage(load) {
  return lazyRouteComponent(() => load())
}

const Layout = lazyPage(() => import('./Layout'))
const Settings = lazyPage(() => import('./Settings'))

then the ${importer} expression would always be "() => load()" right?
