Can't fetch the source map while using the experimental debugger

[PRESIDENT810]

Description

I'm trying to use the new experimental debugger in our RN project, but in the DevTool window it says this:

Failed to fetch source map http://10.39.25.45:8081/index.map?platform=ios&dev=true&lazy=true&minify=false&inlineSourceMap=false&modulesOnly=false&runModule=true&app=com.teslamotors.enterpriseapp: remote fetches not permitted

and can't fetch the source map, thus no source code is shown.

Here're some interesting I've found:

• I can access this URL in Safari and in CLI using wget and curl, but I got this when I open it in Chrome:

• I noticed this using Chrome's dev tools:

Screen.Recording.2024-08-30.at.11.55.01.AM.mov

The "content download" always gets killed after around 3.5s, and then it becomes "Aw Snap!"

• I tried to use the experimental debugger on the Expo tutorial's starter app, which works fine (I think it's using the experimental debugger, instead of the old one?)
• Our source map has ~200MB size

My assumption is that because our source map is so big, Chrome isn't able to download it within a time limit (so the download is always canceled after 3.5s) but I have no idea of how to verify that. Not sure if this is a Chrome bug or RN bug but I'll post it here anyway.

Steps to reproduce

Just launch the experimental debugger on some huge app with ~200MB source map, I guess?

I'm trying to use the new experimental debugger in our RN project, but in the DevTool window it says this:

Please update to 0.76.x and try React Native DevTools over there. We don't offer support for the experimental debugger for previous versions of React Native.

OK let me try that (it might take some time to upgrade RN because it's a huge project but I'll try to get back to you ASAP)
