@prasadrajacse You need to paste all the files present in the dist folder directly under the webapps folder where you must have pasted the dist folder currently.

Try this, it will work. :)

I am having some custom css files referred in index.html file and after build there are missing in the dist folder.

[manish7singh]

There is style.css (master css file) which applies to the whole project. You can add your custom styles to that file.
Alternatively, you can try placing your custom css file to the assets folder and refer the same in your index.html. After build the assets folder is present in the dist folder.
Then the file wont be missing anymore and you won't get the 404 error.

[filipesilva]

index.html is managed by the CLI build system, which means that you shouldn't try to add script or css tags there directly. Instead, you can use the global styles file as shown in https://github.com/angular/angular-cli#global-styles.

Also, when you are trying to debug your app I recommend you use ng serve to serve it. Once you have verified it works with ng serve, you can try to deploy it somewhere else.

If you are deploying to a subfolder within a server, you might need to change the base tag via https://github.com/angular/angular-cli#base-tag-handling-in-indexhtml to match your subfolder path.

I am running my app in linux server.I understand, I just have to copy all dist folder files into my project path in the server

• When I did that, it worked fine for couple of hours. but now am getting the above mentioned error. 404 error.
  please correct me If I am wrong.

@iamsarav I am getting the same error please let me know if you have found the solution

I had the same problem,but I fixed it.
If you are using a maven project, you must remeber all static files must be in webapp/resources.
I have my index.html in webapp/ so my base path in index.html is => <base href="./resources/">
to change this path for next builds you must execute ng build --base-href /newpath/
I hope it helps you.
