Resource interpreted as stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text html seems not related with web server

Question

I have this problem  Chrome continues to return this error      Resource interpreted as stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text html   The files affected by this error are just the Style  chosen and jquery-gentleselect  other CSS files that are imported in the index in the same way work well and without error   I ve already checked my MIME type and text css is already on CSS   Honestly I d like to start by understanding the problem  a thing that seems I cannot do alone

I was facing similar issue  And Exploring solutions in this fantastic Stack Overflow page   user54861  s response  mismatching names in case sensetivity  makes me curious to inspect my code again and realized that  I didnt upload two js files that I loaded them in head tag    -   When I uploaded them the issue runs away   And code runs and page rendered without any another error   So  moral of the story is don t forget to make sure that all of your js files are uploaded where the page is looking for them

Based on the other answers it seems like this message has a lot of causes  I thought I d just share my individual solution in case anyone has my exact problem in the future    Our site loads the CSS files from an AWS Cloudfront distribution  which uses an S3 bucket as the origin  This particular S3 bucket was kept synced to a Linux server running Jenkins  The sync command via s3cmd sets the Content-Type for the S3 object automatically based on what the OS says  presumably based on the file extension   For some reason  in our server  all the types were being set correctly except  css files  which it gave the type text plain  In S3  when you check the metadata in the properties of a file  you can set the type to whatever you want  Setting it to text css allowed our site to correctly interpret the files as CSS and load correctly

Using React  I came across this error in my react profile app  My app behaved kind of like it was trying to reference a url that doesn t exist  I believe this has something to do with how webpack behaves    If you are linking files in your public folder you must remember to use  PUBLIC URL  before the resource like this     lt link type  text css  rel  stylesheet  href   PUBLIC URL  bootstrap min css    gt

I encountered this problem when loading CSS for a React layout module that I installed with npm  You have to import two  css files to get this module running  so I initially imported them like this    import              node modules react-grid-layout css styles css     but found out that the file extension has to be dropped  so this worked    import              node modules react-grid-layout css styles

In my case  same error was coming with JSP  This is how I got to the root of this issue   I went to the Network tab and clearly saw that the browser request to fetch the css was returning response header having  Content-type     text html   I opened another tab and manually hit the request to fetch the css  It ended up returning a html log in form  Turns out that my web application had a url mapping for path     Tomcat servlet entry     WebServlet         index       So  any unmatching request URLs were somehow being matched to   and the corresponding servlet was returning a Log in html form  I fixed it by removing the mapping to    Also  the tomcat configuration wrt handling css MIME-TYPE was already present

I started to get the issue today only on chrome and not safari for the same project url for my goormide container  node js   After trying several suggestions above which didn t appear to work and backtracking on some code changes I made from yesterday to today which also made no difference I ended up in the chrome settings clicking   1 Settings   2 scroll down to bottom  select   Advanced    3 scroll down to bottom  select   Restore settings to their original defaults    That appears to have fixed the problem as I no longer get the warning error in the console and the page displays as it should  Reading the posts above it appears the issue can occur from any number of sources so the settings reset is a potential generic fix  Cheers

i was facing the same thing  with sort of the same  htaccess file for making pretty urls  after some hours of looking around and experimenting  i found out that the error was because of relatively linking files    the browser will start fetching the same source html file for all the css  js and image files  when i would browse a few steps deep into the server   to counter this you can either use the  lt base gt  tag on your html source    lt base href  http   localhost assets   gt    and link to files like    lt link rel  stylesheet  type  text css  href  css style css    gt   lt script src  js script js  gt  lt  script gt    or use absolute links for all your files    lt link rel  stylesheet  type  text css  href  http   localhost assets css style css    gt   lt script src  http   localhost assets js script js  gt  lt  script gt   lt img src  http   localhost assets images logo png    gt

For anyone that might be having this issue  I was building a custom MVC in PHP when I encountered this issue  I was able to resolve this by setting my assets  css js images  files to an absolute path  Instead of using url like href  quot css style css quot  which use this entire current url to load it  As an example  if you are in http   example com user 5  it will try to load at http   example com user 5 css style css  To fix it  you can add a   at the start of your asset s url  i e  href  quot  css style css quot    This will tell the browser to load it from the root of your url  In this example  it will try to load http   example com css style css  Hope this comment will help you

Using Angular   This is a very important caveat to remember   The base tag needs to not only be in the head but in the right location   I had my base tag in the wrong place in the head  it should come before any tags with url requests  Basically placing it as the second tag underneath the title solved it for me     lt base href     gt    I wrote a little post on it here

If you are on JSP  this problem can come from your servlet mapping  if your mapping takes url by defaut like this    WebServlet        then the container interpret your css url  and goes to the servlet instead of going to the css file   i had the same issue  i changed my mapping and now everyting works

I came across the same issue with a  NET application  a CMS open-source called MojoPortal  In one of my themes and skin for a particular site  when browsing or testing it would grind and slow down like it was choking   My issue was not of the  type  attribute for the CSS but it was  that other thing   My exact change was in the Web Config  I changed all the values to FALSE for MinifyCSS  CacheCssOnserver  and CacheCSSinBrowser   Once that was set the web site was speedy once again in production

i d like to start by understanding the problem   Browsers make HTTP requests to servers  The server then makes an HTTP response   Both requests and responses consist of a bunch of headers and a  sometimes optional  body with some content in it   If there is a body  then one of the headers is the Content-Type which describes what the body is  is it an HTML document  An image  The contents of a form submission  etc    When you ask for your stylesheet  your server is telling the browser that it is an HTML document  Content-Type  text html  instead of a stylesheet  Content-Type  text css       I ve already checked my myme type and text css is already on css    Then something else about your server is making that stylesheet come with the wrong content type   Use the Net tab of your browser s developer tools to examine the request and the response

I want to expand on Todd R s point in the OP  In asp net pages  the web config file defines permissions needed to access each file or folder in the application  In our case  the folder of CSS files did not allow access for unauthorized users  causing it to fail on the login page before the user was authorized  Changing the required permissions in web config allowed unauthorized users to access the CSS files and solved this problem

Rob Sedgwick s answer gave me a pointer  However  in my case my app was a Spring Boot Application  So I just added exclusions in my Security Config for the paths to the concerned files      NOTE - This solution is SpringBoot-based    What you may need to do might differ based on what programming language you are using and or what framework you are utilizing  However the point to note is      Essentially the problem can be caused when every request  including   those for static content are being authenticated    So let s say some paths to my static content which were causing the errors are as follows   A path called  plugins      http   localhost 8080 plugins styles css file-1 css      http   localhost 8080 plugins styles css file-2 css      http   localhost 8080 plugins js script-file js   And a path called  pages      http   localhost 8080 pages styles css style-1 css      http   localhost 8080 pages styles css style-2 css      http   localhost 8080 pages js scripts js   Then I just add the exclusions as follows in my Spring Boot Security Config    Configuration  EnableGlobalMethodSecurity prePostEnabled   true   Order SecurityProperties ACCESS OVERRIDE ORDER  public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter         Override     protected void configure HttpSecurity http  throws Exception           http authorizeRequests                antMatchers  lt comma separated list of other permitted paths gt     plugins        pages      permitAll                  other antMatchers can follow here             Excluding these paths   plugins     and   pages     from authentication made the errors go away      Cheers
