This is a ๐ bug report.
Here's the smallest reproducible configuration. No .babelrc, just 3 simple files:
index.html - <link rel="stylesheet" href="index.css"> in head and <div>hi</div> in body.
index.css - div { background: url("bg_diag.png"); }
bg_diag.png - 
Clean console
http://localhost:1234/ seems okay (there's a single network request and the page loads with that background-image for the div element).
However, there's an error in console:
Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot find module '6b40fa7fa533b048cde070004da2b0e1.png,4'

I'm seeing something very similar when trying to get hmr working with the latest parcel version.

Some findings:
function newRequire(name){
...
console.log(name)
...
}
// prints

["a34b5839f12b33bc85271b84ecf5f50f.png", 8]
["a34b5839f12b33bc85271b84ecf5f50f.png", 8]
This doesn't seem right (sometimes array, sometimes number).
Content of modules: {0: Array(2), 4: Array(2), 7: Array(2), 11: Array(2), 12: Array(2), 13: Array(2)} - there is no 8.
I just add import 'index.css'in entry js,
and remove the<link rel="stylesheet" href="index.css"> to resolve this issue.
@realdennis good for you! ^_^
My use case is with HTML as entry point, not JS.
@targumon I mean that if you have <script src="index.js"></script> in your HTML, you can addimport '...css' in the top of index.js , but also use command parcel index.html, roundabout but it worked for me.
The last version without this error is 1.4.1
The loadBundles function expects the last element of the bundles array to be id, but here is none: b.load([["826be0cf9f71003d0ee36613d0e795f9.png",6]])
Just confirming that this is a bug for me in 1.7.1 and I can verify what @skotniczny said that 1.4.1 is the last version where this works correctly for me.
@devongovett @DeMoorJasper Guys this looks like a regression!! I ran into this when using Parcel myself ๐
I did some digging and the root cause of the issue (the reason why it works inv1.4.1 but not v1.5.0) is, unsurprisingly, because 1.5.0 is when we first introduced CSS HMR: #128. I guess the initial implementation didn't account for CSS child assets or something ๐คทโโ๏ธ (not sure, didn't get a chance to investigate in-depth)
The repro for this issue is pretty easy, but I added mine to my parcel-issue-repro if you wanna just use that to make your life easier.
