Problems with vue router (history mode) in development server Vue.js - “Cannot GET /config”

Question

I just wanted to setup my vue project with the full webpack template, use vue router and link different urls to different components.

The src/router/index.html is the following:

import Vue from 'vue';
import Router from 'vue-router';
// eslint-disable-next-line
import Home from '../pages/home.vue';
// eslint-disable-next-line
import Config from '../pages/config.vue';

Vue.use(Router);

export default new Router({
  mode: 'hash',
  routes: [
    { path: '/', component: Home },
    { path: '/config', component: Config },
  ],
});

When I run npm run dev and access the above routes, I have the following output:

Up to here, everything is working fine. The problem is when I use the history mode, I can’t access to localhost:8080/config:

And the console doesn’t show any error:

Another thing I tried was switching the mode to history using the simple-webpack template. The worst part is that it worked! So, the problem is in the webpack-template, but I don't know how to make this work.

I'll appreciate any help.
