I'm getting an error when reloading some of the routes in my app. First load works fine http://localhost:8001
, and all other routes work from there. But if I reload page on some other route I get an exception below...
For example:
http://localhost:8001
workshttp://localhost:8001/application
workshttp://localhost:8001/application/
doesn't workhttp://localhost:8001/application/add
doesn't work
Anyone knows why is this happening?

UPDATE:
I did some debugging and it turns out errors are generated by TemplateNormalizer
, more specifically by HtmlParser.parse()
method. When I removed <meta>
tags from <head>
errors were gone. But nothing else was happening - app didn't show - only <div class="app-loader">
was rendered even though SystemJS
loaded all the modules in the background...
I also noticed one of my services was returning weird results, turns out I used relative URL. This lead me to add <base href="/">
to the header and that fixed all the issues... I'm not sure why, but it seams provide(APP_BASE_HREF, { useValue: '/' })
from bootstrap.ts
is ignored in some places...
