Root cause of bug: web Dockerfile copied .next/static to the wrong path
in the runtime stage. The Next.js 16 standalone server (CMD 'node
web/server.js' from /app/web) runs from /app/web/web/server.js because
'standalone' wraps the source directory. It serves /_next/static/* from
'./web/.next/static' (relative to the standalone server's location),
not from './.next/static' (which is what the previous COPY produced).
Symptom: in the deployed Docker stack at http://localhost:3050 every
client-side JS chunk under /_next/static/chunks/* returned HTTP 404
with content-type text/plain. The browser refused to execute the
chunks (strict MIME), so the SPA never hydrated. All Playwright tests
that ask for any dynamic UI text on a (app)/ page would time out
because AuthGuard never ran in the browser.
Discovery path: deployed compose stack via 'docker compose up -d
--build' + 'scripts/e2e-docker-test.sh' (backend API 9/9 ✓), then ran
Playwright against NOTELETT_WEB_PORT=3050. settings.spec failed with
'product configuration section' not visible. Page snapshot showed
just <skip-to-content link> + toast region — no other content. Console
logs revealed every /_next/static/chunks/* was 404 with text/plain.
'docker exec ls' showed BUILD_ID at /app/web/web/.next/BUILD_ID and
static at /app/web/.next/static — wrong path. Moved static into the
standalone tree and chunks now serve 200 with application/javascript.
Fix:
web/Dockerfile: change
COPY --from=builder /app/web/.next/static ./.next/static
to
COPY --from=builder /app/web/.next/static ./web/.next/static
with explanatory comment so this doesn't regress.
Test hardening (these tests were dev-server-only by accident — they
worked locally because Next.js dev did not enforce the same static
path layout; the bug above hid them in production builds too):
web/e2e/accessibility.spec.ts — 'focus-visible ring appears on tab
navigation' was navigating to /dashboard which AuthGuard correctly
redirects when unauthenticated, leaving the DOM empty (AuthGuard
returns null until verifySessionAndReadiness completes) so Tab
presses focused nothing. Switched to /login which is unauthenticated
by design and has known focusable form inputs.
web/e2e/settings.spec.ts — 'shows product configuration section'
expected /settings to render content without auth. Now obtains real
tokens from platform-service via API, seeds them via addInitScript,
and falls back to test.skip with a clear message if platform-service
is not reachable.
Verified:
- All 31 Playwright tests across navigation/accessibility/dashboard/
search/settings/smart-actions/reviews specs PASS against the
deployed Docker stack at :3050.
- 'pnpm run verify': backend 380/380, web 96/96, mobile 97/97.
- 'bash scripts/e2e-docker-test.sh': 9/9 backend API CRUD steps pass.
- 'curl -sI http://localhost:3050/_next/static/chunks/app/error-*.js'
now returns 200 + application/javascript.
Not migrated: e2e/release-flows.spec.ts and e2e/visual-regression.spec.ts
intentionally remain dev-server-targeted. release-flows.spec uses
page.route() to mock backend responses and is meant to test the UI in
isolation against a dev server. visual-regression.spec needs baseline
regeneration after the UI5-UI8 migration; this is a separate workstream
tracked in docs/UI_UX_PLATFORM_CORE_ROADMAP.md.
