# webassembly

Hi , I was trying to run the peopleInSpace sample with compose web wasm : https://github.com/joreilly/PeopleInSpace , It all works fine if I run wasmJsBrowserRun but if I run wasmJsBrowserDistribution and try to open the index.html locally in browser it does not work . Any help appreciated

[aishwaryabhishek3]

Gives me bunch of errors if i open locally :

try to serve static files from the dir with any http server, e.g. python -m http.server

[aishwaryabhishek3]

So these html files will only work if a server serves them ? Is this a requirement from wasm side ? (completely noob in web development here so excuse me If i sound stupid 😄 )

[bashor]

there is restriction for file:// protocol

[aishwaryabhishek3]

Thanks , one last thing , When I publish the distribution folder on netlify : https://joyful-sawine-0e1c45.netlify.app/. It gives error in console . All my other sites created on wasm target work fine . The file that it says is missing is not even there in my dist folder (PeopleInSpace.uninstantiated.mjs:1) . Any idea how I would go about debugging this as it works fine when I do wasmJsBrowserRun

what is version of kotlin there?

[aishwaryabhishek3]

1.9.20

[bashor]

Probably index.html outdated and <script type="module" src="load.mjs"></script> should be replaced with <script type="application/javascript" src="???.js"></script>

[bashor]

???.js should be replaced with proper js file name from dist folder

[aishwaryabhishek3]

load.mjs is the correct file name

[aishwaryabhishek3]

Let me try building again and re uploading

[bashor]

we no longer load it directly in our examples, for example, look at here

Ah, I think I updated other samples to reflect that change but not this one

[John O'Reilly]

@bashor in https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-wasm-examples/blob/main/compose-jetsnack/web/webpack.config.d/boilerplate.js you're loading load.mjs which in turn is trying to load ./jetsnackwasmapp.uninstantiated.mjs which I don't see generated.....but doesn't seem to be an issue for that project for some reason.

[John O'Reilly]

whereas I'm getting following with what seems like same changes for peopleinspace (though I must be something differently)

GET <http://localhost:8000/peopleinspace.uninstantiated.mjs> net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (File not found)

[John O'Reilly]

k, nvm, I had missed one update....does seem like load.mjs is redundant now (and maybe it's reference in boilerplate.js? Can they be removed?

[John O'Reilly]

@aishwaryabhishek3 that's merged now

[John O'Reilly]

also updated chip-8 and bikeshare repos to more closely align with approach used

[bashor]

load.mjs is still needed, but we are working on making compose projects without custom loaders.

[bashor]

In our examples load.mjs was simplified recently by extracting handling WebAssembly.CompileError to the html file, look at f4f39b
