I have created an Angular project using angular-cli (version : 1.0.0-beta.28.3). I run the application in development environment using "npm start" and the application runs fine in "localhost:4200". Now to replicate production deployment, I wanted to run the application in local WAMP. So, I ran 'ng build -prod', copied the files from 'dist' folder to WAMP's www/student directory. Now when I run the project through WAMP, I end up getting this error :
Obviously, the application was looking for the required js files in the wrong location. I did some research, and found that the context root - in my case 'student' had to be set in "base href="/student" inside the index.html. Due to angular-cli's bug, each time I typed 'ng build -prod', the base href got reset to "/". Found a workaround; typing "ng build -prod --base-href student" set the base href to student.
Now I ran into a new problem. The default page was supposed to show the contents of route 'app-home', but launching the app gives me :
But, both of the routes/ links are working fine. For example clicking 'About Us' changes the url to 'http://localhost:82/student/student/app-about-us' and shows appropriate content.
I am quite sure I have a problem with my routing. Please help me set the routing in a way so that I can get the application running in 'http://localhost:82/student' with sub-urls 'http://localhost:82/student/student/app-home' (default) and 'http://localhost:82/student/student/app-about-us'

Use this option to create build
ng build --base-href .
base href works everywhere.
