Darshan Hiranandani : Has anyone experienced a 404 error when refreshing an app on a web server?

Ionic Framework

Hi everyone, I’ve placed my app on a web server, but when I refresh the browser, I’m getting a 404 error. I’ve been informed that this might be related to not having a .htaccess file. Does anyone have any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

You are going to have to provide more information.

  • How/where are you deploying it
  • What web server are you using, NGINX, Apache, IIS?

It is very likely due to a misconfiguration of your web server. All URLs need to be rewritten to your index.html file. How you do this depends on the web server. With Apache, the .htaccess file. With NGINX, the site’s *.conf file.

You should be able to search for “rewrite to index.html” with the web server you are using and find the needed syntax/configuration.
