Safari web inspector stop working after mac update

Viewed 644

After 24 May (yesterday) mac update for Big Sur (11.4), the web inspector only shows Console, Sources, and Audit tab. The Console tab doesn’t show any from the app, it’s always empty. Source Tab doesn’t show the app code anymore. Tried to clean up Safari Cache, also have tried Safari Technology Preview, and none of this worked, still the same annoying thing. Anyone here has experienced something like it?

I was having the same issue after updating to the latest Safari the other day, which drove me insane today. Fortunately, after struggling for hours, I found a temporary way that might also solve your problem, which is to download an older version Safari Technology Preview from: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/56677/safari-technology-preview, which works properly for me now :)

Also I have reported this issue on Feedback Assistant, hope they get it fixed ASAP.

Jean Silva, same here! Same Safari Version: 14.1.1 (16611.2.7.1.4) and same behavior! Also the "Elements" tab is completely gone and console is just not working.

This is clearly a bug in Safari in new version 14.1.1 (16611.2.7.1.4). But, they have just release a fix to this in the "Safari Technology Preview" (https://developer.apple.com/safari/technology-preview/) which can be used instead of regular Safari for also doing web inspection + remote debugging.
