🚀 VEDA Dahabiyas Route Fix - Deployment Instructions

Problem Fixed

The /dahabiyas/ route was showing 404 on production due to stale build files on the server.

Files Ready for Deployment

• ✅ Fresh build generated with npm run build
• ✅ Deployment package created: veda-deployment.tar.gz
• ✅ All routes including /dahabiyas/ are properly built

Quick Deployment Steps

Option 1: Upload via Web Panel/FTP

1. Download veda-deployment.tar.gz from this project
2. Upload to your server
3. Extract: tar -xzf veda-deployment.tar.gz
4. Copy files: sudo cp -r out/* /var/www/veda/out/
5. Set permissions: sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/veda/
6. Reload Caddy: sudo systemctl reload caddy

Option 2: Direct Server Commands

If you have server access, run these commands:

# Navigate to your project directory on the server
cd /path/to/your/project

# Copy fresh build files
sudo cp -r out/* /var/www/veda/out/

# Set proper permissions
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/veda/ || sudo chown -R caddy:caddy /var/www/veda/

# Reload Caddy
sudo systemctl reload caddy

# Verify Caddy status
sudo systemctl status caddy
