ASP.NET Core Web Api 2.1's default files work, but controllers return 404 when deployed on IIS 8.5

So, I have an Angular 7 application deployed to an instance of IIS 8.5. To serve the actual Angular application, I serve it using the UseDefaultFiles() method on Startup.cs.



        app.UseDefaultFiles();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseMvc();


Fair enough. The actual index.html and related .js files in wwwroot are served with no complications, and my app works. Then, my Angular app tries to make a request to my Web API, and well...



Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)



Under what circumstances would this even happen? It works fine on my machine.
