Describe the bug

Amplify has these Rewrites and redirects settings by default.

However, it's not working for a Nuxt SSR app, because nuxt build does not create any index.html file, it will keep redirecting to /index.html for every routes.

Expected behavior

These settings should not be set by default for Nuxt SRR applications.

Reproduction steps

1. Init a Nuxt 3 repo.
2. Create some pages, for example: /login
3. Deploy to Amplify (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/introducing-support-for-hosting-any-ssr-app-on-aws-amplify-hosting/)
4. Visit the login page main.<app-id>.amplifyapp.com/login

It redirect to /index.html, since this file does not exist it will show 404 error.

Hi @trandaison :wave: !

Thanks for reaching out to us. To immediately unblock yourself, please remove the second rewrite rule from your app - It should prevent the 404 error from occurring.

Aside from that, could you please confirm if you have vue as a separate dependency in your package.json? If so, could you please explain your use case for that?

@Narrator Thanks for replying!

Actually, I had to remove all 2 rules, because the first one will cause redirect to /index.html when I visit the home page.

Aside from that, could you please confirm if you have vue as a separate dependency in your package.json? If so, could you please explain your use case for that?

Yes I do have vue in dependencies, I also have nuxt in devDependencies as well. By default, nuxt create a package.json with both nuxt and vue as separate dependencies.
