Swagger with Service Stack not working

Question

I am trying to implement Swagger with Service Stack. I've installed service stack with swagger using nuget. Current DLL versions are reported as 3.9.56.0 mostly.

I am trying to follow the example provided at... https://github.com/ServiceStack/ServiceStack.UseCases/tree/master/SwaggerHelloWorld

and the instrucstion appear fairly fool-proof...

Plugins.Add(new ServiceStack.Api.Swagger.SwaggerFeature());

goes into the 'Configure' method after I've installed via nuget (as the documentation instructs), then I've added [ApiMember] and [Api] tags, along with changes to the [Route] tags to add Summary and Notes

but when I visit ~/swagger-ui/index.html i get the error

Please specify the protocol for ../api

My api sits at ~/api, and I have a single method at the moment (Hello World) sitting at ~api/Hello/{name} which returns JSON and works ok.

if I visit ~apii get the message Handler for Request not found: with a stack trace type output.

What am I doing wrong? The instructions to enable swagger appear really straight forward, and detailed instructions appear to be lacking, probably because it should 'just work', please help!

Update to address Esker...

Stack trace @ myhost:54011/api

Handler for Request not found: 


Request.ApplicationPath: /
Request.CurrentExecutionFilePath: /api
Request.FilePath: /api
Request.HttpMethod: GET
Request.MapPath('~'): D:\Starteam\Private\user\web\ServiceStackSwagger\ServiceStackSwagger\

App.DefaultHandler: metadata
App.DebugLastHandlerArgs: GET|/api|D:\Starteam\Private\user\web\ServiceStackSwagger\ServiceStackSwagger\api

Also, "Please specify protocol' is a swagger error, displayed onscreen in html underneath the aforementioned 'textbox to change discovery url'

and the DLL versions are 'mostly' the same because ServiceStack.Redis is version 3.9.57.0, but I'm not using that, so 'mostly'

Update... My Solution

I needed this in my web.config file inside of the <configuration> tag, I had previously not included the <location path="api"> bit.

<!-- ServiceStack: CustomPath /api -->
<location path="api">
    <system.web>
      <httpHandlers>
        <add path="*" type="ServiceStack.WebHost.Endpoints.ServiceStackHttpHandlerFactory, ServiceStack" verb="*"/>
      </httpHandlers>
    </system.web>

    <!-- Required for IIS 7.0 -->
    <system.webServer>
      <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
      <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
      <handlers>
        <add path="*" name="ServiceStack.Factory" type="ServiceStack.WebHost.Endpoints.ServiceStackHttpHandlerFactory, ServiceStack" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" resourceType="Unspecified" allowPathInfo="true" />
      </handlers>
    </system.webServer>
  </location>

also... I had set up my 'routes' as such...

//INCORRECT
[Route("/api/Hello/{name}", Summary = @"N031'5 ServiceStackSwagger thingy", Notes = "Some more info in here cause these are notes")]    
    public class Hello : IReturn<HelloResponse>

but that messed with swagger's functionality, it needed to be...

//CORRECT   
[Route("/Hello/{name}"...

with the 'api' bit REMOVED, and now everything is working.

You need to tell Swagger about the specific URL of the ServiceStack Swagger endpoint, rather than the base URL of your services. This endpoint is located at /resources under your base URL. So, instead of ../api for the discoveryUrl, use ../api/resources, like so, in your index.html file:

window.swaggerUi = new SwaggerUi({
    discoveryUrl: '../api/resources',
    ...
