The error ServiceWorker registration error name: “InvalidStateError” typically occurs when attempting to register a Service Worker in a context or state that doesn’t support it. Here’s what it means and how to fix it:

⸻

🔍 What Does InvalidStateError Mean?

This error happens when:
• You try to register a Service Worker on a non-secure origin (HTTP instead of HTTPS).
• You attempt to register it outside the main thread or in an invalid lifecycle phase.
• The browser is in a state where the Service Worker can’t be installed (e.g., page not fully loaded).

⸻

✅ Checklist to Fix the Issue
1. Use HTTPS
Service Workers only work over HTTPS, except on localhost (which is allowed for development).
✅ Make sure your site is served over https://.
2. Correct Path
Check that the path to your service-worker.js file is correct and accessible.

navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js')

3. Register After Page Load
   Always register the Service Worker after the load event or when DOMContentLoaded has fired:

window.addEventListener('load', () => {
  navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js')
    .then(reg => console.log('SW registered', reg))
    .catch(err => console.error('SW registration failed', err));
});

4. Same Origin Policy
   Ensure your service-worker.js is on the same origin as your page. Cross-origin SWs are not allowed.
   5. Browser Support
   Verify you’re using a browser that supports Service Workers.

🛠 Example Fixed Code

if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
  window.addEventListener('load', function () {
    navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js')
      .then(function (registration) {
        console.log('ServiceWorker registration successful with scope: ', registration.scope);
      }, function (err) {
        console.error('ServiceWorker registration failed: ', err);
      });
  });
}
