ExpressJS无法在Openshift中获取/ route，但在本地运行

Question

My project have this following structure.

server.js
/node_modules
/build
    vendor.js
    main.js
    index.html

I'm using express, and AngularJS's ui-router .

In server.js I have this code:

app.get('/*', function(req, res) {
    res.sendFile(__dirname + '/build/index.html');
});

And locally it is working if I pass localhost:8080/hellothere , I get the correct page but when I've deployed, it doesn't.

Within the application if use the links to navigate the routes run, the URL is modified to /hellothere , but if I update the page or try to go straight to the absolute URL I get:

Cannot GET /hellothere

I'm already have tryied put:

app.get('/page1', function(req, res) {
    res.sendFile(__dirname + '/build/index.html');
});

app.get('/page2', function(req, res) {
    res.sendFile(__dirname + '/build/index.html');
});
... 

And the behavior is the same of '/*' . Fine local, broke on cloud.

Any idea what's happening here?

The possible reason might be after deploying your base url might be domainname.com/appname and your local code is for localhost:portNumber not for localhost:portNumber/appname

So modify your path to

app.get('/appname/hellothere', function(req, res) {
    res.send("hellothere is working");
});

instead of

app.get('/hellothere', function(req, res) {
        res.send("hellothere is working");
    });

To run it locally, now you will need localhost:portNumber/appname/hellothere
