Research direction

Start by reproducing navigation from the Routes definition, then inspect approuter->xs-app.json, public->xs-app.json, and manifest.json together with the SAP BTP deployment setup. Verify that loading the detail route directly reaches the React application instead of returning File not found; the issue is complete when the detail view loads through client-side navigation.

Description

I have deployed the react ui5 application in SAP BTP. When I introduce routing using react-router-dom it is saying File Not found

approuter->xs-app.json
{ "welcomeFile": "/salesorderapp" }

public->xs-app.json
{ "welcomeFile": "/index.html", "authenticationMethod": "route", "logout": { "logoutEndpoint": "/do/logout" }, "routes": [ { "source": "^(.*)$", "target": "$1", "service": "html5-apps-repo-rt", "authenticationType": "xsuaa" } ] }

App id is also added to manifest.json
The routing logic
<Routes> <Route path='/' element={<div>Main</div>}/> <Route path='detail' element={<div>Detail</div>}/> </Routes>

Initially the page is loading Main div . But when I hit the detail route, it is saying File not found
