Current behavior

When I refresh my app on a specific url route, (for example, “/dashboard”) I directly get a 404 even if I’m online or offline.

Expected behavior

I should get to the specific page.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

ng build --prod && http-server dist -p 4100 -> Go on Chrome on 127.0.0.1:4100, everything works fine until I refresh on a specific url

Environment

Angular version: 5.0.0
"@angular/service-worker": "^5.2.2"

Notes

I googled the problem and he appears to be something in link with the service worker routing. Everytime they speak about a ngsw-manifest.json file that I don’t have on dist after the build. Is there a way to done it properly in ngsw-config.json ?

Here is mine :

{
  "index": "/index.html",
  "dataGroups": [{
    "name": "tasks-users-api",
    "urls": [
      "/collaborateurs",
      "/suivis/",
      "/webService/ordresMissions/*"
    ],
    "cacheConfig": {
      "strategy": "freshness",
      "maxSize": 100,
      "maxAge": "1h",
      "timeout": "10s"
    }
  }],
  "assetGroups": [{
    "name": "app",
    "installMode": "prefetch",
    "resources": {
      "files": [
        "/index.html"
      ],
      "versionedFiles": [
        "/*.bundle.css",
        "/*.bundle.js",
        "/*.chunk.js"
      ]
    }
  }, {
    "name": "assets",
    "installMode": "lazy",
    "updateMode": "prefetch",
    "resources": {
      "files": [
        "/assets/**"
      ]
    }
  }]
}

Thank’s in advance
