gruntjs - Yeoman, Grunt, AngularJS and error 404 on POST form -

i trying send form "post" method angularjs. use $http send return "cannot post" , 404 error. route correct , happens if execute app via grunt (sending "get" works perfect). app has been built using yeoman.

i think has silly problem cannot make work.

the view:

<form name="formlogin" ng-submit="login()">  <ul>     <li>         <label for="user">user</label>         <input type="text" id="user" name="user" ng-model="user">     </li>     <li>         <label for="pass">password</label>         <input type="password" id="pass" name="pass" ng-model="pass">     </li>  </ul>  <input type="submit" value="send"> 

the controller:

    'use strict'; angular.module('myapp')   .controller('loginctrl', function ($scope, $http, $resource) {       $scope.login = function() {        var config = {         url: 'php/login.php',         method: 'post',         data: {             user: $scope.user,             pass: $scope.pass         }       }; // configuration object        $http(config)         .success(function(data, status, headers, config) {             console.log('success');             if (data.status) {               // succefull login              } else {               // wrong login             }         })         .error(function(data, status, headers, config) {             console.log('error');          });      };    }); 

i use grunt with:

grunt server 

why happens that?

thanks!

i'm confused why get should work in case. grunt server serves static files app , .tmp directories , reference .php file relative. standard setup, ajax request php/login.php return plain php source code of file located in app/php/login.php, not want.

you want separate backend frontend , have php application in different location. either under different location (e.g. /api/login.php) or different host https://api.example.com/login.php. mixing yeoman application api isn't idea.

however, if forced keep them within 1 project, can use grunt-php start local php server gruntfile.
