Can't change output folder in webpack.dev.js

[thngdude]

Thanks for starting this project. It has been helpful with understanding isomorphic concepts.

I'm trying to change the output folder of the bundle in webpack.dev.js and it's not working.

output: {
      path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
      publicPath: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist')
    },

If I reference "/dist/bundle.js" in my html, it doesn't work, but "bundle.js" still works. It seems to ignore my configuration.

Any advice why this is happening? Thanks.

@thngdude additionally you need to pass public path to the webpackDevMiddleware as I did here webpack.dev.js#L38:

app.use(webpackDevMiddleware(compiler, {noInfo: true, publicPath: config.output.publicPath}));

also see if you don't need to change the base path of the express static middleware in server.jsx:

app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'static')));

Works like a charm. Thanks!
