Fatal trace logic error - expected start event, got X

See original GitHub issue

I attached the assets from a LR run that resulted in this error message.

assets.txt

I’d provided the lhr too, but it’s on a remote machine, too big and scp keeps crashing (side note, what???)

Some notes:

  • could not get this to happen locally, neither via node lighthouse nor a local WRS. Only seems to happen in production LR environments
  • provided assets was from running against bloomberg.com. @exterkamp has a whole list of of other URLs that it happens on too.
  • does not happen in prod LR
  • happens on ~5% of requests in canary LR

Hi, I am also getting this error when I run the Lighthouse test from the CI. It never happens when I run the test locally. This error appears in the Diagnostics of performance metrics for:

  1. Reduce JavaScript execution time
  2. Minimize main-thread work

Is there a work-around I can put in place?

We expect this has been fixed by #9785 and #9786. The relative silence since that release went out is reassuring too, so we’ll go ahead and close this out but if anyone runs into this in >=6.0.0 and can provide a trace, we’d love to hear about it 😃
