I have a project which is structured as follows:
- my-app
- src
- some files
- public
- index.html
- ...
If I now execute a npm start the application runs as usual.
Now I want to rename src to application!
When I run npm start now the following error message appears:
Could not find a required file.
Name: index.js
Searched in: C:\Users\{my-user}\my-app\src
Why is it now searching for an index.js and why in my-app/src?
If I now drag the public folder into application the following message appears:
Could not find a required file.
Name: index.html
Searched in: C:\Users\{my-user}\my-app\public
I know why it can't find the file, but how can I change the path at this point? Is there a setting for this in the index.html or another file?
I would be happy to receive an explanation.
src path is hardcoded in create-react-app. You'd better keep it, but you can change it : How do I change `src` folder to something else in create-react-app
If use npm build command to build a react app for production environment, we can get a build named folder. There are html, css and JavaScript in it, but the package.json file doesn’t exists.
If we use this file to set http proxy endpoint to connect API, we can’t run the app well because the endpoint can’t be found.
How to deal with this json file rightly in this case?
First if you have package.json of some Node-React application you can run in example windows CMD (terminal console) and make some folder there you put this package.json and navigate to this folder and then, there typing npm install. On this away you can prepare all what is need for this Node-React app. Exactly with this command starting make node_modules folder there stat install need package. Next step is make folders: src and public, there you put next file :
on Src folder App.js, index.js, App.css
on public folder index.html.
That is because in this package.json exists all what is need for starting application, but if you menually build package.json this can make with run npm.
init in CMD.
Use Proxy in package.json file you can use for example if you send some data in case client-server app. There you have in client for HTTP request axios, on server side express. In package.json file add row "proxy":"http://localhost:3001"
from server. For that plz. look How to set port for express server dynamically?
I am new to ionic application development, while searching through the net I saw a link which directed me to the ionic creator. Reading through it I was able to create an app.
After creating it, I downloaded the source files but now I am trying to run it on my computer. On the cmd screen, I typed ionic servebut I receive this error message [ERROR] Sorry! ionic serve can only be run in an Ionic project directory. Could someone please take me through the process of running the app on my system.
You need to run that command from project directory.
For example, if your application is in C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\MyApp you need to go to MyApp directory and there you can run ionic serve command.
Ionic v1
Install the latest version of the local Ionic CLI installed by typing the command:
npm install -g ionic#latest
To start a new Ionic project, type the command:
ionic start myapp --type ionic1
Now go into the newly created myapp directory, and you will see directory called www inside.
Delete everything inside of the www folder, and move the unzipped files and folders from STEP 1 into the www folder. The directory structure should look like:
Next, move the directory called SCSS-MOVEME up one directory, and rename it to scss. This directory should now sit side-by-side with the www directory.
Now, run the command npm install from directly inside the myapp folder. This will install gulp.js and a few handy tasks, such as gulp-sass and gulp-minify-css.
Finally, in the ionic.config.json file, add the JavaScript property "gulpStartupTasks": ["sass", "watch"].
Ionic v3.x
This step requires you to have the latest version of the local Ionic CLI installed.
To start a new Ionic project, type the command:
ionic start myapp
Now go into the newly created myapp directory, and you will see directory called src inside.
Copy and paste the contents from your zip export into the src directory. You will want to overwrite the app directory, pages directory, and index.html

I'm a pretty new programmer going through the Firebase tutorial. I have gone through steps 1-5 of the tutorial (https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/firebase-web/#5). I've added the "Add Firebase to your web app" js code to the html file, and set up the Firebase CLI. However, when I run the firebase server, everything seems to work other than it is not showing the code from the index.html file.
I am in the right directory, and my console says "Server listening at: http://localhost:5000." But, at localhost 5000, it shows a generic "Welcome to Firebase Hosting: You're seeing this because you've successfully setup Firebase Hosting. Now it's time to go build something extraordinary!" box rather than the app interface code in the index.html file. It is the only html file in my directory. It seems like I am missing something very simple. Thank you for your help.
The website shown to you is the index.html from your public folder (or whatever you configured it to be in your firebase.json file).
The culprit might be firebase init. It tries to generate a generic index.html file for you. However, in the latest version, it should at least ask you whether or not to override (which it did not in the past!).
The problem is firebase init being unbelievably crude. It just overrides the index.html file that was in your public folder... no confirmation, no safety net, no nothing.
If you lost, or accidentally let firebase init overwrite, your index.html file, you have to re-produce it somehow. If you do not have a backup of or other means of re-producing your index.html file... well... too bad!
How does the firebase CLI work?
Generally, the steps of a firebase setup go a little like this:
firebase login
firebase init
your-build-command-here # (if you have a build pipeline)
firebase deploy
You only need to do Step #1 (login) the first time when you setup building on that machine (or maybe when a new firebase revision has been released)
You only need to do Step #2 (init) to initialize a new project. That is, when you don't have your firebase.json yet (which will be created by the init command).
To re-deploy, it's simply:
your-build-command-here # (if you have a build pipeline)
firebase deploy
I figured out my answer. The index.html file that was being posted was in the "public" file, which was created during the "firebase init" stage. I replaced that placeholder html file with the one for my app.
Firebase hosting not showing up app?
There might be two reasons for this problem
1st step:
Make sure your public folder (define in your firebase.json) 'dist' containing the index.html hasn't been modified by firebase init command, if yes replace it with your original project index.html
for reference (dist is standard but your may different)
{ "hosting": { "public": "dist"} }
2nd step:
Make sure to configure your base href in project's index.html
as
<base href="https://["YOUR FIREBASE PROJECT NAME"].firebaseapp.com/">
and other bundle files as
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://["YOUR FIREBASE PROJECT NAME"].firebaseapp.com/runtime.a66f828dca56eeb90e02.js">
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://["YOUR FIREBASE PROJECT NAME"].firebaseapp.com/main.2eb2046276073df361f7.js">
3rd step run command - firebase deploy
enjoy ! ;)
New projects
when doing firebase init select the directory which contains the index.html as the public directory.
Existing projects
update firebase.json with
"hosting": {
"public": "dist/directoryThatContainsIndexHtml",
......
}
Edited Original Answer: Available in edit history. Only for testing purposes.!! for production, use the updated version. Contents of dist are rewritten on each build so anything you place #dist are gone each time you build.
For anyone else comming across this.
Try launching in incognito mode - the browser was cached for me.

first of all you need to check your index.html after deployment of project. after these command steps:
firebase login
firebase init
firebase deploy
your real index.html file might be overwrite by firebase generic file that's why the problem is occurred. so change code of index.html after deployment of project. if you see this box on your web page
Tip: copy your complete project anywhere in your PC before deployment.
otherwise check your directory for file path your path of index.html is must correct.
In my case when I run the command ng build --prod it created a sub folder under dist folder. Assume my project name is FirstProject. I can see a sub folder called FirstProject inside dist folder (dist/FirstProject).
Give dist/[subDirectory] as your public directory
What do you want to use as your public directory? dist/FirstProject
This solved my issue
For deploying Angular application to Firebase simple and quick tutorial
you can find here.
During the process of firebase init, type N, when the question
"File dist/index.html already exists. Overwrite?" appears, and your page will be displayed as it should be.
In public folder option write dist/your-folder-name.
This will allow you to render your index file which is in your folder.
npm install -g firebase-tools
firebase login
firebase init
firebase deploy
firebase open

When you build your Angular app, at least with Angular 10, by default Angular creates a folder names dist, containing a folder having the name of the application. For example, this example’s app is named blog-front, so when building the project (ng build or ng build -- prod), Angular will create a folder dist, containing a folder named blog-front:
When you reach the firebase init step asking the public directory, your folder's name should be “dist/blog-front” for this example, or “dist/yourApplicationName” as a general rule :
In my case firebase was using the wrong directory, also see here: firebase CLI didn't recognize the current project directory for 'firebase init'. While I was expecting firebase to put all created files into my project directory it was totally disconnected and put all files into my /Users/MyUserName directoy and deploying the wrong index.html from there.
This is how to fix it (no reinstall of firebase needed as suggested in the linked post):
delete all created firebase files from /Users/MyUserName directoy (.firebaserc, firebase.json, index.html and dist-folder)
run firebase init on project directoy
use dist/projectname as public directory
Configure as a single-page app "Yes"
do not overwrite index.html (if you do, make sure to "ng build" again before deploying)
firebase deploy
By the way, for everyone who is using Angular 7, this tutorial about deploying an angular 7 app to firebase hosting was really helpfull to me.
I faced similar situation. When we run firebase init it asks couple of questions. At that time we mention the directory path from where firebase will take all files to deploy.
Make sure that, directory contain index.html.
Delete the index.html which is present in dist folder.
Then run the following commands:
firebase login
ng build --prod
firebase init
firebase deploy
This Worked for me
First Stop the project and follow these steps
npm install -g firebase-tools
firebase login
firebase init
? Are you ready to proceed? Yes
? Which Firebase CLI features do you want to set up for this folder? Press Space to select features, then Enter to confirm your choices. Hosting: Configure and deploy Firebase Hosting sites
? What do you want to use as your public directory? dist
? Configure as a single-page app (rewrite all urls to /index.html)? Yes
After initialization is completed makesure to delete the created dist file before next steps
ng build --prod
firebase deploy
You are seeing this error because you didn't run the command:
npm run build
make sure you use it before firebase deploy
and also make you are incorrect directory.
execute this after finishing firebase init process.
If you get a public folder with ready index.html by firebase init. You can simply replace that index.html with yours and use the command:
firebase deploy
That should be enough to get it working. Make sure all the files are where they should be!
Working Solution
Just do
flutter build web, then
flutter deploy.
firebase init tries to generate a generic index.html file for you, and if it did that, then you first have to do flutter build web so that the index.html you need is generated, rather than the generic one, and then again flutter deploy
Please follow the step
npm install -g firebase-tools
If you already have a dist folder, remove it from directory
firebase login
ng build --prod
firebase init
firebase deploy
index.html file has that firebase default information.That's why it is showing that information. Copy and paste index.html from your original angular file and paste it to dist index.html. This fixed my issue.
You should add your files to public directory folder before deploy it into firebase server(your app's index file should be there).
My solution is just waiting a bit.
Then, if it still not working.
let try:
Solution 1: check your index.html inside "build" folder and index.html in your own project. They should be the same, if not, copy code index.html outside "build" folder and paste into index.html inside "build" folder.
solution 2 : delete your .firebase folder. and init it again.
=> firebase init
? What do you want to use as your public directory? build < == NOTE: "build" is my directory
? Configure as a single-page app (rewrite all urls to /index.html)? No <== select NO
? File build/404.html already exists. Overwrite? No <== select NO
? File build/index.html already exists. Overwrite? No <== select NO
After doing these things, I also get that notification of "Welcome Firebase Setting Host Complete" , and I just wait for a while. then reload the website.
Changing the default HTML page name in the public folder to index.html worked for me.
Also, make sure you do not rewrite the index.html when firebase prompts you to in the firebase init step(follow the attached image).
I have successfully run my html project using following command
gradlew html:superDev
And after that I run "gradlew html:dist" command .
This compiled my app to Javascript and place the resulting Javascript, HTML and asset files in the html/build/dist/ folder.
Now my question is how to use this "dist" folder to run my project on server.
I tried to upload this "dist" folder on my server and then runs it's index.html file but only superDev Refresh button appears.
Please tell me what are the steps to follow after creating the dist folder ?
Which files and folder should I upload on server ?
Hi I solved it by taking following steps:-
In eclipse I right click on html project and compile it using GWT compile.
2 then run the html project as web application.
3 After successfully launching of the game I copy all the folders excepts WebInf from the war folder and place them in a new folder then upload it on server.
That's it.
But through Gradle I did not get any success.
