Loadgen doesn't work through the frontendproxy

[martinjt]

Bug Report

Which version of the demo you are using?
1.11.1

Symptom

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

What is the expected behavior?

The Loadgen UI for locust works when accessing from the /loadgen path from the frontendproxy.

What is the actual behavior?

Because the static resources don't contain the base path, it doesn't work and all the static resources 404.

Reproduce

Could you provide the minimum required steps to resolve the issue you're seeing?

• Run the helm chart to deploy it to a k8s cluster
• Port forward 8080 from the frontendproxy service
• access http://localhost:8080/loadgen

Same issue here. Ended up port-forwarding service loadgenerator to access UI and it is working fine.
Issue seems to be related to Locust but did not find a way to configure it correctly (see locustio/locust#149 for example)

Hello all, thanks for reporting it.
I'm not sure how to properly solve this, but there is a working solution, just add / at the end of the url.
Seems funny, but believe me:

localhost:8080/loadgen

localhost:8080/loadgen/

We tried making it explicit in the docs and in the make start command, but we are open to suggestions.

@martinjt any suggestions?
Or should we close this one?

@julianocosta89, your workaround works, thanks!
