404 page not found when a url is hit but properly served when opened from the link on index page

Question

I am using nginx-lua module with redis to serve static files of ember-app. The index file content is stored in redi

Answer 1

Following nginx location block has to be added in order to serve the subroutes from index file being served from redis. A detailed explanation and full nginx config can be found here.

  # This block handles the subrequest. If any subroutes are requested than this rewrite the url to root and tries to render the subroute page by passing the subroute to index file (which is served by the redis).
  location ~* / {
  rewrite ^ / last;
  }
