Hello there professional users. I have come across an issue after customizing my dspace user interface. I used the dspace theme to do so and imported a few components from the custom theme and it seemed as if everything was fine. I stopped the dev server and ran yarn build:prod but after it finishes running and I try to access the page using the ui.url specified in the config.production.yaml file the page doesn't load. The request seems to remain hanging indefinitely as I in the terminal when I check my pm2 logs it shows something like this:                           
                                                                                                     
GET /home - - ms - -
GET /home - - ms - -
GET /home - - ms - -
GET /home - - ms - -

And they continue to go on and on without ever getting the page. The only solution I tried so far was to clear all the browser cache and to try starting it in an incognito window but both these solutions didn't work. When I stopped pm2 again and started the dev server surely enough the page loads with all my changes displayed. I'm not sure what to do from here so any help would be appreciated.

Good day All!
what is the server error are you getting on browser end? Also please be specific on the pm2 logs.
 for a detailed log.
Also verify your ui-deploy.json file that is renders and cites the correct directory paths for your dist files and the frontend build directory location.

Thank you
