Problem with colons in URL?

[mgroves]

When using a particular frontend (https://github.com/khaledosman/angular-realworld-example-app), it seems to have trouble with colons in the URL.

Examples:

GET of "https://localhost:7272/api/articles/my-article-title::c2SkJ9HO6UDK " returns with 405 method not allowed
GET of "https://localhost:7272/api/article/my-article-title%3A%3Ac2SkJ9HO6UDK" (which is what Swagger UI generates) works fine.

Is it possible that this is a server-side routing issue? How can that be fixed?

If not, may need to change the delimiter/structure of slugs.

No, this wasn't a colon issue. It was actually a bonehead mistake by me using the wrong routes. I used "/api/article" in some places, where it's supposed to be "/api/articles". I also noticed that I used the wrong route for "unfavorite" while going through and double checking. Oops.
