issue with path with version 1.4.4 - redirecting all files to index.html

[Bazmcl]

Have been using your http server for a couple of our angular (5) app... and had been working well

app is running inside a docker container
FROM node:latest EXPOSE 8666 RUN npm install -g angular-http-server ...other stuff WORKDIR /usr/apps/my-app ENTRYPOINT angular-http-server -p 8666

However the latest version (1.4.4) seems to set the working directory to the angular-http-server dir and we get a bunch of warnings like this:
...
Route /usr/local/lib/node_modules/angular-http-server/usr/apps/my-app/main.bundle.js, replacing with index.html

Rolling back to version 1.4.3 (seems to work fine)
RUN npm install -g angular-http-server@1.4.3

Thanks. I was trying to fix a security vulnerability and looks like I got it wrong. Will relook

[simonh1000]

Could you try 1.4.5 just published

[Bazmcl]

after 3 minutes of exhaustive - and exhausting ;) testing I can confirm this is resolved on 1.4.5

thanks

Great. If you continue to find the project useful, a star would be welcome.

I'm still getting this error using 1.4.5:

It works when I add a / to the script src's in index.html:

Doesn't work:

<script type="text/javascript" src="runtime.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="polyfills.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="styles.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="main.js"></script>

Works:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/runtime.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/polyfills.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/styles.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/vendor.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/main.js"></script>

but index.html is generated by ng build so I don't want to have to change it every time. Also subsequent requests for e.g. my translation jsons fail in the same way.

Any ideas for how to solve this?

@mold, I add the same issue, but then I found that I was building with an incorrect base-href. Once I resolved that everything works just fine.

Not sure if that will also help you.

This issue appears to occur when you pass in an absolute path when running in a non-Windows environment. The filepath sanitization will always strip out the leading /, turning it into a relative link, and thus probably not finding the file.
