Polymer 2 new page getting 404

Question

I've followed polymer guide to create a new page: https://www.polymer-project.org/2.0/start/toolbox/create-a-page. But when I click on the nav menu item "New view" I get "Oops you hit a 404. Head back to home." instead of my new view. I tried to edit the existing pages and everything seems to work fine, but my new page isn't. My files are exactly like the tutorial, I checked it a lot.

Answer 1

I guess the error is in function __Pagechanged and linked functions. See: it depends on name of your pages my- 'page '... I guess you should your page as 'my-number_of_page_-view ' or rewrite start code

Answer 2

It's actually the function _pageChanged that does the importing, the lazy import stuff is just there to trick the linter.

That being said I can't see why it wouldn't work unless it's an issue with the server.

If you browse to your my-new-view.html page does that 404? If so the page is not being served. Also look in your console to see if it's throwing an error.

Answer 3

Seams all are fine like you have pointed polymer-project 's page but the only thing you need to correct. If you like to import your pages with lazy-import you need to move this lines between <dome-module> and <template>, something like:

... 
<!--import all necessary library ABOVE as you did and PLUS below  -->
<link rel="import" href="../lazy-imports-mixin.html">
...
<dom-module id="my-app">
    <link rel="lazy-import" group="lazy" href="my-view1.html">
    <link rel="lazy-import" group="lazy" href="my-view2.html">
    <link rel="lazy-import" group="lazy" href="my-view3.html">
    <link rel="lazy-import" group="lazy" href="my-new-view.html">
    <link rel="lazy-import" group="lazy" href="my-view404.html">
  <template>
...

And extend this element of Polymer.LazyImportsMixin :

class MyApp extends Polymer.LazyImportsMixin(Polymer.Element) {...

Please refer lazy-load syntax from here

Or you may simply import the pages at same place but without lazy-import like:

<link rel="import" href="my-view1.html">
<link rel="import" href="my-view2.html">
<link rel="import" href="my-view3.html">
<link rel="import" href="my-new-view.html">
<link rel="import" href="my-view404.html">
