github pages + namecheap domain = response status 404

I'm trying to add a domain name to my react app but I get a 404 response when I added it. It works fine in github pages hosting but when I add the domain I get the error. not sure if I'm missing something in my package.json file? please help, I've been stuck for quite some time now.

this is my package.json

Solution

  • Your website is trying to fetch the static assets (JS and CSS) from the wrong URL. It's requesting them at https://www.casahogarscj.com/casaHogar/static/... while Github serves them at https://www.casahogarscj.com/static/... (without casaHogar).

    To fix this, you need to change the homepage value to https://www.casahogarscj.com/ in your package.json and rebuild your website.
