Descripción
### Command
serve
### Is this a regression?
- [x] Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
### The previous version in which this bug was not present was
20.3.6
### Description
Since updating to Angular v20.3.9 / CLI v20.3.8, it’s no longer possible to run two ng serve instances for the same project (e.g. localized builds) in parallel.
The second instance fails to load with a 504 (Outdated Optimize Dep) error for one or more chunks (e.g. chunk-5V7QYGNA.js).
This setup worked correctly in previous Angular 20.3.6 versions (before the CLI migrated the dev-server to the Vite-based implementation).
The issue appears to be caused by both ng serve processes sharing the same Vite optimizer cache directory inside .angular/cache/.../vite.
When one process updates or invalidates the cache, the other process detects stale metadata and refuses to serve pre-bundled chunks.
### Minimal Reproduction
package.json scripts
"scripts": {
"start": "ng serve --host 0.0.0.0",
"startfr": "ng serve -c fr --host 0.0.0.0",
"startfr-alt": "ng serve -c fr --host 0.0.0.0 --port 4201",
"start:both": "concurrently \"npm run start\" \"npm run startfr-alt\""
}
Steps to reproduce
1. Run npm run start:both.
2. Wait for both dev servers to start.
3. Observe that the second instance fails to load in the browser console with:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 504 (Outdated Optimize Dep)

Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Comienza con la reproducción de package.json start:both e inspecciona el directorio compartido del optimizador de .angular/cache/.../vite mientras se ejecutan ambos procesos de ng serve. La corrección estará completa cuando los servidores paralelos para distintas configuraciones carguen correctamente sin errores 504 Outdated Optimize Dep.
