Istio Ingress routing fails with 404 for Nginx/Angular app

I am deploying Nginx with angular app behind istio ingress gateway.

Expected result: https://tremend.com/tremendui/ should open the app.

Issue: But after accessing the url https://tremend.com/tremendui/, it reaches till index.html, but it fails to open other .js or .css files. It gives net::ERR_ABORTED 404.

Unrecognized Content-Security-Policy directive 'https://10.22.33.100'.
GET https://tremend.com/styles.63a1fbbeeb253678e456.css net::ERR_ABORTED 404
GET https://tremend.com/runtime-es2015.fd26fadf204671228ade.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404

If i open the link https://tremend.com/tremendui/runtime-es2015.fd26fadf204671228ade.js, the file opens correctly.

Nginx custom configuration:

server {
  listen 80;
  location / {
    root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
  }
}

Nginx/Angular Dockerfile:

FROM node:ubuntu as build-step
ARG env=dev
RUN mkdir /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install && npm install -g @angular/[email protected]
COPY . .
RUN echo "Build environment is $env"
RUN ng build --configuration=$env

FROM node:ubuntu as prod-stage
RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -yq install nginx nginx-extras
## Remove default nginx website 
RUN rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/*
COPY --from=build-step /usr/src/app/dist/ /usr/share/nginx/html
COPY ./nginx-custom.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
COPY ./nginx.conf  /etc/nginx/
EXPOSE 80
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]

Virtualservice yaml file:

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: tremendui-ingress
  namespace: apx-system
spec:
  hosts:
  - "*"
  gateways:
  - apollox-istio-gateway
  http:
  - match:
    - uri:
        prefix: /tremendui/
    rewrite:
        uri: /
    route:
    - destination:
        host: tremend-ui.default.svc.cluster.local
        port:
          number: 80

Can someone assist? Just need some directions on how to solve this. Should i change the base-href in angular or ingress virtualservice or nginx config?

Update1:
I changed my virtualservice as below:

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: tremedui-ingress
  namespace: apx-system
spec:
  hosts:
  - "tremend.com"
  gateways:
  - apollox-istio-gateway
  http:
  - match:
    - uri:
        exact: /
    route:
    - destination:
        host: tremend-ui.default.svc.cluster.local
        port:
          number: 80
  - match:
    - uri:
        prefix: /jsonserver/
    rewrite:
        uri: /
    route:
    - destination:
        host: json-server.default.svc.cluster.local
        port:
          number: 3000
  - match:
    - uri:
        prefix: /tremendapi/
    rewrite:
        uri: /
    route:
    - destination:
        host: tremend-api.default.svc.cluster.local
        port:
          number: 8000
  - match:
    - uri:
        prefix: /dynamicapi/
    rewrite:
        uri: /
    route:
    - destination:
        host: dynamic-api.default.svc.cluster.local
        port:
          number: 9000

@jt97, I considered yours and Rinor's inputs. But now it goes to the index.html from "/" and also routes to frontend. However other prefixes also routes to the frontend instead of their corresponding destination.

The path for /static, /callback and regex were not working. Because once i added them i just get a 404 error. So i added just root "/" for frontend.

When you use rewrite you need to add path in virtual service for your dependencies like css and js.

It was well explained by @Rinor here.

This Istio in practise tutorial explains it well.

Let’s break down the requests that should be routed to Frontend:

Exact path / should be routed to Frontend to get the Index.html

Prefix path /static/* should be routed to Frontend to get any static files needed by the frontend, like Cascading Style Sheets and JavaScript files.

Paths matching the regex ^.*.(ico|png|jpg)$ should be routed to Frontend as it is an image, that the page needs to show.

http:
  - match:
    - uri:
        exact: /
    - uri:
        exact: /callback
    - uri:
        prefix: /static
    - uri:
        regex: '^.*\.(ico|png|jpg)$'
    route:
    - destination:
        host: frontend             
        port:
          number: 80

Additionally you can take a look here.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
