I'm working on an application using ASP.NET Web API, SignalR and AngularJS. Ui-router is being used and html5 Mode is enabled.
I've edited the web.config file and the rewrite rule is like this:
<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" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" matchType="Pattern" pattern="api/(.*)" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" matchType="Pattern" pattern="signalr/(.*)" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="/" />
</rule>
Everything works great in visualstudio localhost and the auto-generated signalr hubs file is loaded successfully.
The problem is when I deployed the application on server (windows server 2008 R2), and run the application, <script src="signalr/hubs"></script>
the request to signalr hubs file keep sending me index.html back as response, which I think the reason may be this line of code
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" matchType="Pattern" pattern="signalr/(.*)" negate="true" />
is not working correctly so the request is being rewrite to the root url.
I've tried to change the pattern to "~/signalr/(.*)", "~/(signalr)" or "~/signalr but none of these work.
Any suggestion? Thank in advance.
