React-native-webview: net::ERR_FAILED

Bug description: The first time I open my app the website loads correctly in the WebView. Then I go to the homescreen and after a while I return to the app and gets the following error:

Website not available
The website at https://www.example.com?param=value could not be loaded because:
net::ERR_FAILED

Has anyone seen this error before?

Here is some logs from Android Studio that may or my not be related/useful.

To Reproduce: I have only been able to reproduce this error in release - not in debug. This error happens after loading the app the first time, then leaving it and return to the app after a few hours. Maybe it is related to cache.

The problem persist when I force quit the app. If I reinstall the app it is working for a while.

Expected behavior: Website should fully load.

Screenshots/Videos: the error

Environment: - OS: Android (Huawei P20 Pro and multiple other Android phones) - OS version: Android 8 - react-native version: 59.3 - react-native-webview version: 5.6.2

I found a fix for this issue!

It looks like a broken service worker stalled the website. I solved it by using the injectedJavascript prop in my WebView to inject the following lines of code:

navigator.serviceWorker.getRegistrations().then(function(registrations) {
   for (let registration of registrations) {
       registration.unregister();
   }
});

It is a bug in Google Chrome 75.
