Basic nginx configuration for AngularJS html5Mode

gistfile1.txt

    server {
        listen 0.0.0.0:12345;
    
        location / {
            root /home/zdwolfe/src/angularAWS/app;
            try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
        }
    }

this does not work well when the angular urls are like this
http://serverpath/a/b
all the css and js files will try to load from http://serverpath/a/

This gist has little more details

This worked for me.

This a dirty solution, but worked for me.
Sacrifice my 404 page, but fix the main problem.

server {
    listen 0.0.0.0:12345;

    location / {
        root /home/zdwolfe/src/angularAWS/app;
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
    }

    error_page 404 /index.html
}

I want ionic web app to run in subfolder
location /con { root /var/www/html/p/ionicsub/www; index index.html index.htm; try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404; }

But this didn't work 404 for the js and css
