loadScript fails in Community: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 503 (Service Unavailable)

Question

I am loading a JS file in a LWC with:

import { loadScript } from "lightning/platformResourceLoader";

connectedCallback() {
    loadScript(this, "/resource/simpleTest")
      .then(() => {
        console.log("file loaded");
      })
      .catch(e => {
        console.log("error: ", e);
      });
}

On Community I get: "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 503 (Service Unavailable)" and when I click on the url on the right I arrive on a page saying that "https://my-domain.cs189.force.com/digital is closed for maintenance...". When testing outside Community it is working fine.

Answer 1

As mentioned here, I don't think lightning/platformResourceLoader is supported for communities yet (or at the least not fully supported).
