[BUG] Route not found only for loading conf.yml

[am93]

Environment

Self-Hosted (Docker)

Version

2.0.7

Describe the problem

I am trying to use Dashy on custom domain under URL path "/dashboard". Complete URL is https://mycustomdomain.net/dashboard".

I made following changes to configuration:

• defined the BASE_URL environmental variable using docker-compose
• assigned appConfig.routingMode value "hash" (I believe this is "ignored" as the frontend can't load the file from the server due to wrong request).

After setup is completed and I try to visit the URL I can see from chrome dev tools, that BASE_URL should be working, because resources are being fetched from the server.

But when the requests come to conf.yml I get redirected to route 404 and I can see an exception in console:

@Lissy93 - I think the bot made a mistake 😄 Can you please check this issue ?

I'm actually not sure, I remember getting this working a while back in NIGINX, for a user but have forgotten exactly what I did. So unless you know of a method in Vue to get this working natively, then only serving from base domain is supported.

Hey, thanks for the response.

I will try to look into it further. Currently I suspect that there is something wrong with passing BASE_URL to Vue (

dashy/vue.config.js

Line 17 in a784a2f

    <tbody><tr class="border-0">
      <td id="L17" class="blob-num border-0 px-3 py-0 color-bg-default" data-line-number="17"></td>
      <td id="LC17" class="blob-code border-0 px-3 py-0 color-bg-default blob-code-inner js-file-line"> <span class="pl-k">const</span> <span class="pl-s1">publicPath</span> <span class="pl-c1">=</span> <span class="pl-s1">process</span><span class="pl-kos">.</span><span class="pl-c1">env</span><span class="pl-kos">.</span><span class="pl-c1">BASE_URL</span> <span class="pl-c1">||</span> <span class="pl-s">'/'</span><span class="pl-kos">;</span> </td>
    </tr>
</tbody></table>

), but I am not sure why, as it follows Vue guidelines (https://cli.vuejs.org/config/#baseurl).

If you get any idea on how this was resolved, please let me know.

Solved the issue with Vue and NGINX. Apart from what I have already written above I have added following configuration to my NGINX:

location / 
{
    rewrite conf.yml https://mycustomdomain.net/dashboard/conf.yml redirect;
}

That's awesome, nice one! And thanks for sharing the solution :)
I will add this to the docs to help anyone else looking for this...
