Visual LANSA Forum

Morning
I am having a issue installing my PWA onto my desktop.
Having created my Offline Support (Web App Manifest/Service worker) Like this .
When I go into Chrome to install the PWA onto my desktop the option is not available, I am expecting a Install PWAxxxxxx below the Find

Is this a Chrome issue or is something missing in the LANSA Offline Support.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I don't know that it is a Chrome issue. I did a quick test with one of my VL web apps that is PWA enabled, and in Chrome it shows the "install" icon in the browser bar, and if I click on it, it brings up the Install dialog. I also tested in the Brave browser (another chromium browser), and it performed the same way with the install icon in the browser bar.
Windows PC v10 Pro, chrome v 128.0.6613.138

Was the vl app originally compiled and checked in without the offline support? could the earlier version still be in cache?

Thanks for the reply, some good questions.
The vl web objects where compiled and checked in loads of times during development, it was only at the end that I wanted to test PWA app stuff so I added the offline support, as I was going to put the app onto a android device, but wanted to make sure it worked on the desktop first.

In Chrome I do not get that install icon as you show either. The test server is not secure, not sure if that has any baring, however when I call the url in Edge I do get the option in the apps section menu to view it as a app but not install it as a app ?? It is almost like it does not know the web site has off line support enabled. I can clear the browser cache, not sure where on the iSeries I do that.

Update!

Ok I deleted the offline support from my web page, and then added it again and checked in.
Now when I run Chrome and open the url I get the option under Cast Save and Share to generated the app.
I can only think something went missing when I added offline support the first time around.

Thanks for the help.
