I'm trying to open a .html file "resume.html" on my website. This is my "public" folder.
I'm using React, and I'm trying to open "resume.html" in a new tab on button click with this code:
<Resume className="resume" onClick={() => window.open("/resume.html", "_blank")}>View Resume</Resume>
Everything works fine during development. on my localhost: 3000, the resume opens in a new tab just fine. But when I host the site on AWS Amplify, the button click loads "index.html".
I have no idea why the AWS amplify server would be loading a different file than my localhost server.
If you use ReactJS then everything will go through a build step to create the deployment assets that make up the Single Page Application. The result of this build step is what will be deployed to be hosted on AWS.
For navigation in ReactJS it is better to use a routing library like React Router. You can create a new React Component for the resume content and navigate to it using a Router Link. This will work better for the Single Page Application to understand rather than opening a HMTL page with window.open.

My react is running fine on local host, but when I upload it online for ex : Heroku, Vercel, It only shows the react home screen "edit app.js". The app is not working.
It might be because your index.html file being hosted still has the boiler plate code. Based on how you're deploying your app, a html is usually created for you with some boiler plate (I know firebase does this for example).
I'm using Nextjs for a front-end application and dotnet core 3.1 for the Web API. There are some pages that are static and other that are dynamic I followed the official documentation to achieve this. On development mode (local machine) everything works fine. Both static and dynamic routes are working properly and fetching data from the dontnet core Web API.
However, when publishing the Nextjs app following this steps:
yarn build
yarn export
An out folder is generated at the root of the project
The content of that folder is uploaded to the server
After, the deployed files are uploaded and when loging to the app, it redirects to the main page (until here is working OK), but as soon as I click on the reload page botton (Chrome) I am gettint the 404 error.
Looking at the console in the developer tools I got this:
I found this Stackoverflow link with same issue but there the answer is to use Express for server routing. In my case I am using dotnet core Web API for server requests. So, not sure how to do that.
Is there a way to fix this from the client side? Might be a configuration is missing?
The only thing I noticed while doing the export was a message saying: No "exportPathMap" found. Not sure if that would the the reason.
I had got similar issue in react when all of my pages after building and exporting had ".html" extensions. I solved it by the following code in next.config.js file.
next.config.js
module.exports = {
exportTrailingSlash: true,
}
Note: Do not work with the above code while in development. Use it just before building the project.
You can find the documentation link here: https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next.config.js/exportPathMap#adding-a-trailing-slash.
UPDATE
The above code was for next.js v9.3.4 which I was using at that time. For newer versions below code should be used according to docs.
next.config.js
module.exports = {
trailingSlash: true,
}
it has been fixed update your nextjs package
npm install next#latest
based on the current version of Next js you have, visit here to see if there's any breaking change before updating what you have
I had a similar issue where after deploying the out folder created by next export all URL's would redirect me to the homepage. Everything was working fine during development and all URL's were accessible with next/link but in order to access pages with a URL I had to add a .html extension at the end of the URL.
Because I needed a quick workaround I added a useEffect block in the _app.tsx file for rerouting so that upon landing on the homepage it would act as if a Link component was clicked redirecting to the entered URL.
useEffect(()=>{
router.push(window.location.href)
},[])
When running my spring app from my IDE and running the React app from within VSCode, everything worked perfectly. I used the build script to build my React project, and then put the output into my /static folder of Spring. Then I used mvn clean install to build the .jar file. After running the entire app from the .jar file, I can access my homepage with localhost:5000. I can also use my navbar links to access different parts of the website, like the Home page and the About page... But if I try to manually enter the url localhost:5000/about I get a 404 Not found error.. What am I doing wrong?
My guess is that your Spring (webmvc?) application is not configured to listen to different URLs other than /. And while it may seem as if the navbar successfully redirects to http://localhost:5000/about, in reality the single page application uses JavaScript client-side routing to change the URL in the browser, unload the currently rendered page, and load another page.
If you are indeed using Spring MVC, you could (among other options) modify your Spring static resource configuration, modify your #RequestMapping to listen to multiple endpoints, or use a ViewControllerRegistry.
I uploaded the export directory of a Svelte app using Sapper to example.com. In the /routes directory I created a page called foo.svelte. When I click on a link in the app that forwards me to /foo, I see that page, both locally and on example.com.
But when I go to example.com/foo directly in the browser, I get a 404. Understandable, because nothing is hosted on that address.
So what do I need to change on example.com so that the routing works not just from within the app, but also by typing in the URL directly in the address bar of the browser?
The site runs on Apache and I have Plesk as management tool.
I have a react application build with create-react-app. Its using octoberCMS as the backend fetching data using Axios calls from the frontend. Till now I was developing keeping the build content of react inside a directory named 'react' in the root directory of octoberCMS installation. Hence the URL I was hitting was http://example.com/react/.
The problem is now I am done with the development phase and look forward to deployment. But I want my front-end to be served at http://example.com and backend to be served at http://example.com/backend (backend served as I want). How can I achieve this? I am fairly new to both frameworks.
I have tried keeping the build content along with the rest of the octoberCMS
First build your react app that will give you vendor.js[third party scripts] and your app.js[your actual app]
put them in to theme directory assets something
Then In Ocotber CMS make page with URL /:url? and paste your index.html content there.
it will be your root div and including js html, change path for js which points to the build js which you put in theme directory.
now what happens when anybody come to site
- we are serving same content as we do in dev build
- index.html with root tag and needed js
Now if use hit any other url like https://www.example.com/test/etc it also will be catch by /:url? (and all other requests) and home page served and our react app will work as we needed.
if any questions please comment.
