I am hosting Dotnet Core 3.1 project with a Vue js application. For that, I have hosted the vue js static files inside the www-root folder.
I also have a swagger UI in my application.
This is the default web config that I have in the hosted directory.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>
<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\MyApp.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false"
stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" forwardWindowsAuthToken="false" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
With this configuration, the swagger ui runs fine without any error.
But I have to add the rewrite logic for the Vue js application, so I have updated the web config with the following configuration.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="wwwroot-static" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="([\S]+[.](html|htm|svg|js|css|png|gif|jpg|jpeg))" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="wwwroot/{R:1}" />
</rule>
<rule name="empty-root-index" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^$" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="wwwroot/index.html" />
</rule>
<!--
Make sure you have a <base href="/" /> tag to fix the root path
or all relative links will break on rewrite
-->
<rule name="AngularJS-Html5-Routes" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/.well-known/openid-configuration" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/.well-known/jwks" negate="true" />

<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/connect(.*)" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="wwwroot/index.html" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
<handlers>
<add name="StaticFileModuleHtml" path="*.htm*" verb="*" modules="StaticFileModule" resourceType="File" requireAccess="Read" />
<add name="StaticFileModuleSvg" path="*.svg" verb="*" modules="StaticFileModule" resourceType="File" requireAccess="Read" />

</handlers>
<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\MyApp.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false"
stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" forwardWindowsAuthToken="false" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
With this configuration in the web config, my vue js application runs fine. But then when I go the site: http(s)://[MYWEBAPP]/swagger, it redirects to http(s)://[MYWEBAPP]/swagger/index.html and gives a 404 files not found error.
Configure Service in my startup class looks like this:
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
{
app.UseSwagger();
app.UseSwaggerUI(c =>
c.SwaggerEndpoint("/swagger/v1/swagger.json", "Sample API")
);
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapControllerRoute(
name: "default",
pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});
}
Trying through the multiple available solutions, I realized that the swagger UI is trying to look for the index.html from the wwwroot, so it is causing the not found error. I am stuck on how to suggest swagger UI to look into the own directory.
What could be the issues with this? What am i missing here? Anyone else also might have this issue?
