Failed to load resource - app.component.css

1. OS.
Linux 4.6.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 11 19:12:32 CEST 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

2. Versions.
angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.2
node: 6.3.1

3. Repro steps.
Sample project https://github.com/fhdk/ng2-cli-webpack.2 demonstrating the issue

EDIT 2016-08-12: updated sample project

ng new dash

ng generate component dashboard

Run ng serve and watch out for the changes

Move content from ./index.ts to app/index.ts and delete it

Add app/dashboard/dashboard.routes.ts and content

import { Routes } from '@angular/router';

import { DashboardComponent } from './dashboard.component';

export const dashboardRoutes: Routes = [
  {
    path       : 'dashboard',
    component  : DashboardComponent,
    canActivate: [ AuthGuardService ],
  }
];

Add app/app.routes.ts and content

import { Routes, provideRouter } from "@angular/router";

import { dashboardRoutes } from './dashboard/dashboard.routes';

const routes: Routes = [
  ...dashboardRoutes,
  { path: '', redirectTo: '/dashboard', pathMatch: 'full' },
  { path: '**', redirectTo: '/dashboard' },
];
export const appRouterProviders = [
  provideRouter(routes)
];

modify app/app.module.ts adding imports and providers

...
import { DashboardComponent } from './dashboard/dashboard.component';
...
@NgModule({
  imports        : [
    ...
    RouterModule,
  ],
  providers      : [
    appRouterProviders,
  ],
  ...
})
...

Add a new component where no route is needed ng generate shared/cmpnt

The ng generate component is messing with me.
Locate /shared/ folder in project root and copy contents of index.ts to root/src/app/shared/index.ts and delete the the root/shared folder

Add <router-outlet></router-outlet> to app/app.component.html

In your sample project I changed app.component.ts
Instead of styleUrls: ['app.component.css']I used styleUrls: ['/src/app/app.component.css']. Not sure what the reason for that is. But it silenced that error but gave me others regarding the router outlet.

EXCEPTION: Error: Uncaught (in promise): Error: Cannot find primary outlet to load 'DashboardComponent'

Edit: It doesn't look like you tried to use dashboardRoutes anywhere. I'm not sure what you are trying to do with that so I can't help much.

@bpyle0092
I know but that goes against the idea of the cli moving to webpack so it's not cure.

beta.10 without webpack - used moduleId = module.id - the compiler would know where to find css.

beta.11-webpack.2 the module.id is no longer required. It is therefore odd with no compiler-error but error finding the css.

the dashboardRoutes is reference in app.routes.ts but I forgot the <router-outlet>.

[bryanpyle]

Could you elaborate on this step you listed:

Move content from ./index.ts to app/index.ts and delete it

I don't fully understand what you were doing.

@bpyle0092 - elaborating
When doing ng generate component the cli is incorrectly creating/using an index.ts in the project root instead of the existing src/app/index.ts.

The same thing happens if you do ng generate component shared/cmpnt - this creates a folder/file structure shared/index.tsin the project root - elaborate - at same level as src and the content is obviously meant for the existing src/app/shared/index.ts

This behavior is mentioned in #1642

@bpyle0092
I have updated my sample project with my latest troubleshooting but if there is a logic I fail to see it.

The app fails to load if login.component has

• styleUrls : [ 'login.component.css' ]

and works if login.component has

• styleUrls : [ './app/login/login.component.css' ]

while three other components app/dashboard/token-ttl has

• styleUrls : [ 'app.component.css' ]
• styleUrls : [ 'dashboard.component.css' ]
• styleUrls : [ 'token-ttl.component.css' ]

Finally tracked it down

A missing export in app.routes.ts

import { Routes, provideRouter } from "@angular/router";

import { dashboardRoutes } from './dashboard/dashboard.routes';

export const routes: Routes = [
  ...dashboardRoutes,
  { path: '', redirectTo: '/dashboard', pathMatch: 'full' },
  { path: '**', redirectTo: '/dashboard' },
];
export const appRouterProviders = [
  provideRouter(routes)
];
