Router config "enableViewTransitions" and "Aw, Snap!" error

blueiceprj commented 2 weeks ago

router

Is this a regression?

Yes

Description

A few weeks ago, we enabled a new feature in Angular, "enableViewTransitions", and a few days later, our users reported that they started receiving the following error in many browsers. "Aw, Snap!" error with the code "5". We initially investigated whether there was a software error and could not see any messages or errors on either the console or the network on devtools. I encountered this error 1-2 times in the development environment. That's why we thought it was a browser-related error and suggested solving the problem with f5. But it was annoying. Then we noticed this change and decided to roll it back. After the change, we did not receive any messages from users that they no longer received this error and the problem was resolved.

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction of the bug

View Transition are an experimental browser feature. Code 5 is the Chromium browser crashing. You should repport that issue to the chromium browser.

I know their answer about that. There was no message or error. Suddenly this error appeared. I just shared an experience I had. I didn't think it could be this much of a problem.

As @JeanMeche mentioned, this error is thrown by the browser. Without any additional information or reproduction, we can’t help any further than pointing you to the correct place to file an issue against view transitions. Note that they’re likely going to need a reproduction as well to make any progress on an investigation.

Closing, as this issue is outside of Angular.
