404 not found problem!

[hamidhadi]

Hi. I want to set proxy on generator-angular with "grunt-connect-proxy".
After set configuration in grunt file, I get 404 error in my console for angular server requests.
here is my grunt file:

// Generated on 2015-09-30 using generator-angular 0.12.1
'use strict';

// # Globbing
// for performance reasons we're only matching one level down:
// 'test/spec/{,*/}*.js'
// use this if you want to recursively match all subfolders:
// 'test/spec/**/*.js'

module.exports = function (grunt) {

  grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-connect-proxy');

  // Time how long tasks take. Can help when optimizing build times
  require('time-grunt')(grunt);

@hamiid is localhost/wpTreehouse/wp-json/ running at the time you issue grunt serve? Because your proxy is setup in a way to use that as proxy.
