Angular 2 Hosting in IIS: HTTP Error 404

I have a simple application with one component that expects certain parameters from url. there is only one route in the app:

const appRoutes: Routes = 
                       path: 'hero/:userId/:languageId',component: HeroWidgetComponent }];

In Index.html I have this in the header <base href="/">

I use webpack, and the application works fine in the development environment when viewing the URL: http://localhost:4000/hero/1/1

.

However, when building an application to produce and get the distribution files, then to put it on IIS. When trying to view the same URL, I get the following error:

HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

The app works fine if I remove all routing and just browse: http:localhost:4200

in IIS.

We have to return IIS to index.html by adding a rewrite rule.

Step 1: Install IIS URL Rewrite Module



Step 2: Add rewrite rule to web.config

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <configuration>
      <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
          <rules>
            <rule name="AngularJS Routes" stopProcessing="true">
              <match url=".*" />
              <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />   
              </conditions>
              <action type="Rewrite" url="/" />
            </rule>
          </rules>
        </rewrite>
      </system.webServer>
    </configuration>

STEP 3: add web.config link to angular.json: (because after ng build it will be skipped)



"architect": {
                "build": {
                    "builder": "@angular-devkit/build-angular:browser",
                    "options": {
                         ..........
                        "assets": [
                            "src/favicon.ico",
                            "src/assets",
                            **"src/web.config"**
                        ]

If you are using an IIS app like myApp

below your default website (then your app url should have the syntax http: // localhost / myApp / my-angular-route ) try changing the action to

<action type="Rewrite" url="/myApp/"/>;

Then it works seamlessly for my environment.
