Angular 2 How to redirect to 404 or other path if the path does not exist [duplicate]

Answer 1

As shaishab roy says, in the cheat sheet you can find the answer.

But in his answer, the given response was :

{path: '/home/...', name: 'Home', component: HomeComponent}
{path: '/', redirectTo: ['Home']},
{path: '/user/...', name: 'User', component: UserComponent},
{path: '/404', name: 'NotFound', component: NotFoundComponent},

{path: '/*path', redirectTo: ['NotFound']}

For some reasons, it doesn't works on my side, so I tried instead :

{path: '/**', redirectTo: ['NotFound']}

and it works. Be careful and don't forget that you need to put it at the end, or else you will often have the 404 error page ;).
