Still Getting 'not Found' When Manually Refreshing With Angular.js Route

After reading a ton of write-ups and stackoverflow questions on Angular.js route, I'm still getting the 'Not Found' error when I do a manual refresh. Steps: browse to localhost --

Solution 1:

This .htaccess setting worked well for me

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$
    RewriteRule (.*) /#!/$1 [NE,L,R=301]
</IfModule>

Solution 2:

I don't know if this is the optimal solution, but I did find a combination of settings that worked:

• Include the hashPrefix('!') (see below)
• Did not include <base href="/"> in my index.html
• Added FallbackResource /index.html to my <Directory PATH_TO_WWW_FILES> section in my server .conf file per this post. After setting this, it didn't seem to matter what the local mod_rewrite settings were.

// Routing configuration.
angular.module('myModule')
    .config(['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider', 
    function ($routeProvider, $locationProvider) {
        // Enable pushState in routes.
        $locationProvider.html5Mode(true).hashPrefix('!');

        $routeProvider
            .when('/home', {
                templates: {
                    layout: '/views/home.html'
                },
                title: 'Welcome!'

            })
            .when('/launchpad', {
                templates: {
                    layout: '/views/layouts/default.html',
                    content: '/views/partials/profile.html'
                },
                title: "Launchpad"
            })
            .otherwise({
                redirectTo: '/home'
            });

    }
]);

Solution 3:

For people who are still facing this error, with or without SSL:

Make sure you Allowoverride in your apacheconfig e.g.

<Directory"/var/www/mysite/public_html">
    AllowOverride All
</Directory>

for both ports is u use SSL

Solution 4:

I couldn't comment but as well as using HTML mode, base href="/", sudo a2enmod rewrite, using .htaccess rewrite. From Unispaw, I had to AllowOverride All in both the sites available of your site and the /etc/apache2 apache.conf
