Cannot get /...

[awitherow]

Regardless of what page I attempt to go to, if I try to go there directly and not through the home page, it gives me, for example:

Cannot GET /take-action

How can I navigate to these pages directly?

My router file looks like

import Vue from 'vue'
import Router from 'vue-router'

Vue.use(Router)

export default new Router({
  mode: 'history',
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/',
      name: 'hello',
      component: require('components/views/Hello')
    },
    {
      path: '/find-help',
      name: 'find-help',
      component: require('components/views/Find')
    },
    {
      path: '/take-action',
      name: 'take-action',
      component: require('components/views/Action')
    },
    {
      path: '/about',
      name: 'About',
      component: require('components/views/About')
    },
    {
      path: '*',
      name: '404',
      component: require('components/views/Hello')
    }
  ]
})

Duh there is a section about it... closing.

For those wondering, this is the section: https://router.vuejs.org/en/essentials/history-mode.html

[kofimokome]

https://router.vuejs.org/en/essentials/history-mode.html does not solve the problem
I recentlyy deployed my vue js app to heroku and I have the same problem

[awitherow]

@kofimokome can you please post your router file?

`
import Vue from "vue"

All the code can't fit into the block. Thanks

[awitherow]

I can't help you too much @kofimokome as I am not really active with vue anymore... but check out my project, it is working:

https://github.com/openrefuge/openrefuge/blob/master/src/router/index.js
https://github.com/openrefuge/openrefuge/blob/master/src/main.js

Good luck and let me/us know if you've gotten it fixed 👍

[kofimokome]

Thanks @awitherow .
I noticed that my dist folder has just one file (build.js). I do not know if it is OK or normal because I took a look at yours and I saw other files inside?

[kofimokome]

I've seen the solution. I was using webpack simple. So, I switched to webpack and everything is working fine https://kofitictactoe.herokuapp.com ( still under development so the app is not user friendly)
Thanks for your help @awitherow

[awitherow]

Nice @kofimokome glad you figured it out! Sorry I couldn't be of more help m8. Good luck with your project! Would be cool to see it turn into a nice progressive web app 👍

If anyone stumbles upon this problem, you can just add:
historyApiFallback: true
to your webpack.config file

@awitherow Can you be more civil about your 'help' next time?

[LinusBorg]

The comment you are referring to is more than a year old, more recent comments are fine, plus the author is not active anymore - so I think this is a bit unnecessary

[samayo]

The comment was made on Mar 15, 2017 so, it's not more than a year old by any calendar. Also, I just encountered this error and came to see a solution, but saw his comment go without being reprimand so I had to say something.

Its fine if you want to take sides, but my comment wasn't unnecessary
