ERROR - AI Studio: GET https://ai.studio/index.tsx net::ERR_FAILED 301 (Moved Permanently)

The core error I’m seeing is GET ``https://ai.studio/index.tsx`` net::ERR_FAILED 301 (Moved Permanently). This means the AI Studio server is incorrectly telling my browser that the app’s main file has “permanently moved,” which is causing the entire app preview to fail. I’ve been wondering, is anyone else getting this error?

Where the Error Is Showing Up

This error appears inside my Chrome Developer Tools, specifically in the “Console” tab.

I can see this by right-clicking on the AI Studio page, selecting “Inspect,” and then clicking the “Console” tab at the top of the panel that opens.

The error log shows two distinct messages in red:

  1. The Core Problem: A GET request for the file httpsfs://ai.studio/index.tsx that failed with the status net::ERR_FAILED 301 (Moved Permanently).

  2. The Security Side-Effect: A CORS policy error, which is my browser’s security system blocking the bad redirect from the first error.

Steps I Took to Verify the Problem

I verified the problem using an isolation test to determine if the error was caused by my original project or by the AI Studio platform itself. At the beginning of each test, I went into Chrome’s “Advanced” settings, used the “Clear browsing data” tool to clear my cache, and then performed a hard refresh of the page.

Here are the steps I followed:

  1. Initial State: My original project was failing to load its preview and showing the 301 error, even after clearing my browser data and refreshing.

  2. The Test: I hypothesized this was a platform-wide outage. To prove this, I needed to test a project that was 100% clean and free of any of my own code.

  3. Step 1: Create a New Project: After clearing my cache again, I went to the main AI Studio dashboard and created a brand new, empty project.

  4. Step 2: Use a “Hello World” Prompt: In the “Describe your idea” box for this new project, I entered a simple prompt like "Hello World app" and clicked “Build.”

  5. Step 3: Run the Preview: I opened the “Preview” for this brand-new, simple “Hello World” app.

  6. The Verification: The “Hello World” app also failed to load.

  7. The “Smoking Gun”: I opened the Chrome Developer Console for that new project’s failed preview, and it showed the exact same net::ERR_FAILED 301 error on the index.tsx file.

This test 100% confirmed the problem is not with my original project or my local browser cache. The error is happening on Google’s servers, and it is affecting all app previews on the platform, even brand-new, blank ones.

Latest Update and My Question

As of this afternoon (Sunday, Nov 2), the Google AI developer forums are showing a growing number of complaints from other users with titles like “The ai studio app preview is loading indefinitely” and “BUG : Stuck on Please wait for content to load.”

Other users are clearly experiencing this, even if they haven’t found the specific 301 error in the console.

This is the official (but incorrect) status page: https://aistudio.google.com/status

What is happening and why is no one from the AI Studio Dev team responding?
