Answer 1

This error also occurs when manifest is empty, or there is no manifest at all. If u use some framework, eg. Angular, just check whether you have manifest in your production build. If not - add "manifest.json" in your angular.json/angular-cli.json to assets array.

Example: "assets": ["assets", "favicon.ico", "manifest.json"]
