I am new to using Ember and have been following an online video tutorial (see weblink below, though its dated as it uses .NET Core 1.0) that demonstrates how to setup a JSON API back-end with an Ember front-end - I am using Visual Studio Code. I have successfully completed the first video and receive responses from the JSON API back-end. However, I am unable to get the second video working by having Ember send a request to the api-back end for data retrieval. I know this because I am monitoring the calls to the server. So, while I can hit the back-end server and receive a JSON response, the front-end response is HTTP Error 404 - page not found and there is no request to the back-end.
HTTP Error:
Error: Ember Data Request GET /todo-items returned a 404
Payload (text/html; charset=utf-8)
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Error</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>Cannot GET /todo-items</pre>
</body>
</html>
My best guess is that changes have been made to .NET Core and Ember with respect to routing that are not covered in the videos. Unfortunately, a 404 error is very little to go on and I am unable to find the problem. Does anybody know where the problem is or how I can troubleshoot this?
