I have a python app set up in cPanel. I have set the app URL to backend and when I query mydomain.com/backend/ it gives back the app's root view (which is just an html "hello there").
The rest of the endpoints are the ones I need but I get back a 404 on every other URL
@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
logger.debug("Hi there")
return "<h1 style='color:red'>Hi there</h1>"
@app.route('/test', methods=['POST','GET'])
def test():
logger.info("Got test request")
return {'ok' : 'success!'}
mydomain.com/backend/ --> Hi there
mydomain.com/backend/test --> 404
mydomain.com/backend/<any_other> --> 404
I would bet there's some other service returning the 404 before reaching the script. I could not find any reference to backend/ in the public_html/.htaccess. Dependencies are ok (no package complains).
My privileges on the server are very limited. Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Ps found a similar question with no answers
A member of our team worked this out by adding a new subdomain and setting the url there.
So instead of mydomain.com/backend the app is running now at backend.mydomain.com/backend and working just fine.
Cheers
