React router having an issue with correctly routing to component

My program is supposed to route to a component when going to the local path /experience/:id but it is only working on localhost when ran with npm start.

I currently have my site uploaded to /test subdirectory (willfeldman.com/test). I set basename="test" on the Router. When I go to the route /test/experience/1 after uploading the code to my site, I see a blank page and there is a console error saying Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<' (at main.694b5be9.js:1:1).

A couple of things (not sure what will be relevant to fixing the blank page ):

• I converted my App.jsx file to a Typescript file named App.tsx

• I’m using Hostgator to host my site

• I am using useParams from react router in my <ExperienceView /> component that I route to from /test/experience/1

• I have an .htaccess in the public folder that contains the following code as suggested on the Create React App documentation. It works for rerouting invalid URLs to my React error component <Error /> as specified in my Router, but it does not work for the route /test/experience/1
  

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.html [QSA,L]

• I had the same issue when running the static files from build with npx lite-server and the way I fixed it was by uploading a folder called build/test/experience that contained index.html, manifest.json, and the static folder. This makes me think it may be something with a setting on the router that needs to be configured, but I am not sure.

Issue is resolved. It was because I had “.” set as my homepage in package.json.
