vuetify-dialog | Easy dialogs in Vuetify.js framework | Frontend Framework library

I have a Nuxt JS app setup to use Nuxt Auth. This works fine locally.

Specifically I am generating an email sent to the user with a link to reset their password of the form

http://localhost:3000/reset-password/ca62c3554c8058c9ddf11b709fc451405ffa99f4b22a88d84e087f5b40fb6d1f

When they click it - its picked up by a nuxt route which parses the JWT. Locally I serve it using nuxt start - which serves from the dist directory I believe and so should be a good test for static serving

When I deploy this to a remote lightsail server running Ubuntu and Plesk and Nginx and Apache I deploy it using nuxt generate and copy the content of the generated dist directory to the httpdocs directory. When the same workflow is followed and the user clicks the link it is not caught by one of the nuxt generated static html files and I get a 404. All other nuxt routes are being generated into files ok. What am I missing?

nuxt.config.js
