What happened?

I noticed that the jquery-noconflict asset in Joomla 6.1 appears to point to a path that does not exist in my installation.

In media/vendor/joomla.asset.json, the asset is registered as:

"uri": "vendor/jquery/jquery-noconflict.min.js"

However, the file on disk exists at:

media/vendor/jquery/js/jquery-noconflict.min.js

The registered path does not exist:

ls -la media/vendor/jquery/jquery-noconflict.min.js
# No such file or directory

while this one does:

ls -la media/vendor/jquery/js/jquery-noconflict.min.js

This may cause 404s when extensions call:

$wa->useScript('jquery-noconflict');

Should the asset URI in media/vendor/joomla.asset.json be changed from:

"uri": "vendor/jquery/jquery-noconflict.min.js"

to:

"uri": "vendor/jquery/js/jquery-noconflict.min.js"

or is there another intended way this asset should be loaded in Joomla 6.1?

Version

6.1

Expected result

The jquery-noconflict asset should point to an existing file and load without a 404.

Actual result

The asset appears to point to:

media/vendor/jquery/jquery-noconflict.min.js

but that file does not exist in my installation. The file exists instead at:

media/vendor/jquery/js/jquery-noconflict.min.js

System Information

Joomla version: 6.1

Additional Comments

I have not changed the asset file yet. I wanted to check whether this is the intended asset URI in Joomla 6.1, or whether the asset definition should be updated.
