 * Hello
 * For some time now we get this error:
 * `analysis-worker-1490.js:1 Refused to execute script from 'https://www.domain.
   com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/js/dist/commons-1490.js' because its MIME
   type ('text/x-js') is not executable.`
 * We reinstalled the plugin, but the error does not go away.
 * Any idea?
 * Thanks
    Aldo

 * Hi [@ab_lu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ab_lu/),
 * Thank you for reaching out!
 * We’re sorry to hear you are having issues with the plugin. Let’s find out what’s
   happening on your site and get this fixed.
 * We tried to find and replicate this issue, but were unable to do so. Can you 
   elaborate when you get this issue? Is this on the editing screen when you edit
   a post or page? Or is this on the front-end?
 * Additionally, are you running any caching plugin or security plugin that affects
   the MIME times on your site? In any case, we would recommend doing a conflict
   check to check what combination of plugins/themes that make this issue appear.
   You can find more details on how to do this here: [https://yoast.com/help/how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts/](https://yoast.com/help/how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts/).

 * Hi Jeroen
 * Thank for getting back.
    We are experiencing this on the edit screen only (posts
   and pages). We also contacted the hoster and there is no such rule blocking this
   mime type and we also disabled any caching plugins. And we also run the conflict
   check and got the same problem.
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@ab_lu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ab_lu/),
 * Thank you for getting back to us.
 * While doing the conflict check, can you confirm you got the same issue when Yoast
   SEO is the only active plugin and while using a default theme? If so, that would
   be unexpected. We can’t replicate the issue in our test environments. Can you
   please check if your host and/or site meet the plugin requirements found here:
   [https://yoast.com/help/plugin-requirements/](https://yoast.com/help/plugin-requirements/).

 * Hi Jeroem
 * Yes I can confirm Yoast SEO was the only active plugin using default theme.
    
   Requirements are met.

 * I’ve found a related Github issue where another user has run into something similar.
   We still believe this is possibly caused by some setup or hosting configuration
   upstream, cause we don’t set the MIME type on these files. Can you please check
   the [Github issue](https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/15468#issuecomment-646659586)
   and ask your host if they do something anything related to compression or adjustments
   to the site output?
 * We would happy to hear more details from you or your host. Thank you in advance!

 * We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you
   require any further assistance please create a new issue.
