Direct URL works locally but not on server

Question

I have a project created using Aurelia CLI v0.33.1 using Webpack. I have enabled pushState and index.ejs contains a <head> with:

<base href="<%- htmlWebpackPlugin.options.metadata.baseUrl %>">

which is currently set to "/" in my webpack.config.js (as I've seen suggested elsewhere for similar issues).

When I access the url locally via, http://localhost:8080/orders, I can view the page. After publishing to an Azure host, accessing https://<AzureHostURL>/orders results in a 404.

If I navigate to https://<AzureHostURL> and use the UI to navigate to /orders it works as expected.

It is unclear to me what the cause of this issue could be.

check out [this article](http://manuelguilbault.com/blog/2017/08/22/Hosting-an-Aurelia-app-on-Azure/) right about the middle, it explaines about push state with azure — avrahamcool, Jul 11 '18 at 19:08
