Result of StaticQuery could not be fetched after cleaning cache

[alimaldonado]

Description

Whenever I run gatsby clean so gatsby can fetch my CMS' graphql endpoint from zero, the application cannot fetch it unless I also reinstall the dependencies.

Btw: I tried to re-fetch the data with the /__refresh endpoint but it does not find new properties from my API's entities.

Steps to reproduce

• Create a new page/component.
• Add a graphql query, in my case:

const topDesigns = useStaticQuery(graphql`
    {
      directus {
        items {
          designs(sort: "date_created") {
            name
            extract
            date_created
            date_updated
          }
        }
      }
    }
  `);

• Modify your graphql API and then modify your query to match the API

// fyi, I'm using Directus, though I don't believe it has something to do with the bug
const topDesigns = useStaticQuery(graphql`
    {
      directus {
        items {
          designs(sort: "date_created") {
            name
            extract
            picture
            date_created
            date_updated
          }
        }
      }
    }
  `);

• Stop gatsby develop, run gatsby clean, and run gatsby develop again, so it will fetch again the data.

Expected result

The application can fetch the data

Actual result

The result of this StaticQuery could not be fetched. This is likely a bug in Gatsby and if refreshing the page does not fix it, please open an issue in https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/issues
Edit: I found the data can be fetched again if I comment the query, save the file, uncomment the query and refresh the page on my browser.

I edited my issue, since I found a workaround removing the query and adding it again to the component. However the error will not disapear no matter how many times you refresh the page, unless doing that.

I'll wait to close this issue since I don't know if this behavior can affect anything else.

Hi!

Sorry to hear you're running into an issue. To help us best begin debugging the underlying cause, it is incredibly helpful if you're able to create a minimal reproduction. This is a simplified example of the issue that makes it clear and obvious what the issue is and how we can begin to debug it.

If you're up for it, we'd very much appreciate if you could provide a minimal reproduction and we'll be able to take another look.

Thanks for using Gatsby! 💜

Have you moved gatsby outside the /src folder? to me it gives error when I try it see #27878

I haven't but I think it has something to do with what I mentioned early: my solution was to coment/delete my query, save and then rewrite/uncomment, save again and the query gets fetched without having to reinstall dependencies.

While it's a kinda odd behavior, it's nothing more than annoying doing as what I did. I'm gonna try what you did as well. Also, it seems like it only happens with the last query wrote.

Hi!

Since we didn't receive an answer for 7 days or more about the ask of a reproduction I'm going to close this now, as we can't do much to help without a reproduction. If you are able to create a minimal reproduction for this then please do answer here or open a new issue with a reproduction. Thanks!
