How to fix the white screen after build with create-react-app?


I used react-router-dom and I build my react-app. When I deploy it on the server, I get a blank page and the console is empty.

My App.js is :

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Route, Switch, BrowserRouter} from 'react-router-dom';
import Agenda from './components/Agenda/Agenda';
import Planning from './components/Planning/Planning';
class App extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <BrowserRouter  basename="/">
          <Switch>
            <Route exact path="/"  component={Agenda} />
            <Route path="/planning" component={Planning} />
          </Switch>
        </BrowserRouter>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default App;

My index.js is :

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from './App';

ReactDOM.render(
        <App/>
, document.getElementById('root'));

My index.html :

<!DOCTYPE html>

    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <link rel="shortcut icon"  href="favicon.ico">

    <div id="root"></div>
    <script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

In my package.json, I have :

"homepage": "."

And when I change my homepage to https://dev.test.com/Reactand when I run it, I get a blank page, such as the address, which I deployed is : https://dev.test.com/React/ It is not public. When I run serve-s build, I get a blank screen on the console, I get:

My index.html on production is :

How can I fix it ?


Solution

  • Try changing basename="/" on your BrowserRouter to basename="/React". react-router needs this if used in a sub-directory.

    From the react-router docs:

    basename: The base URL for all locations. If your app is served from a sub-directory on your server, you'll want to set this to the sub-directory. A properly formatted basename should have a leading slash, but no trailing slash.

    Also change homepage in package.json to the url of your production target. homepage="." means it will work on every domain where it is located in the server root (and is also the default behaviour).

    From the React docs regarding deployment:

    By default, Create React App produces a build assuming your app is hosted at the server root. To override this, specify the homepage in your package.json, for example:

    "homepage": "http://mywebsite.com/relativepath",
    

    This will let Create React App correctly infer the root path to use in the generated HTML file.
