Aurelia-cli >1.1.0 does not work with virtual directory anymore

Help Requests

After upgrading to aurelia-cli 1.1.0 (same problem with 1.1.1) when I build a dist and try to run it from IIS virtual folder, aurelia won’t load scripts from correct path 192.168.1.2/testapp but from 192.168.1.2 only. It does not respect the virtual directory settings in webpack.config.js.
Before I would just do:

publicPath: production ? '/testapp/' : '/'

and all would jsut work, but doing the same not makes not difference. Any ideas what am i doing wrong?

Not sure how you did before, but you need to modify one more to match the path.

new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      template: 'index.ejs',
      metadata: {
        // available in index.ejs //
        title, baseUrl: production ? '/testapp/' : '/'
      }
    }),

I’m setting both

output: {
    path: outDir,
    publicPath: production ? '/testApp/' : '/',
    filename: production ? '[name].[chunkhash].bundle.js' : '[name].[hash].bundle.js',
    sourceMapFilename: production ? '[name].[chunkhash].bundle.map' : '[name].[hash].bundle.map',
    chunkFilename: production ? '[name].[chunkhash].chunk.js' : '[name].[hash].chunk.js'
  },

and

new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      template: 'index.ejs',
      minify: production ? {
        removeComments: true,
        collapseWhitespace: true
      } : undefined,
      metadata: {
        // available in index.ejs //
        //title, baseUrl
        title, baseUrl: production ? '/testApp/' : '/'
      }

but the issue is still there. Still trying to load the scripts without accepting the virutal directory

I have found the problem. After re-reading the README.md and run

npm run build

it all build fine. I t look like the old

au build --env prod

no longer works :frowning:

updated, thank you.
I wonder if this was intentional or accidental change :slight_smile:

It was an unintentional breaking change due to the big refactoring.
