I’m trying my hands setting up compute.geometry service in a Windows EC2 server and spinning up compute.rhino3d.appserver in my local environment and pointing it to Ec2 geometry server. Following the links [https://github.com/mcneel/compute.rhino3d.appserver](https://github.com/mcneel/compute.rhino3d.appserver) and [https://developer.rhino3d.com/guides/compute/deploy/](https://developer.rhino3d.com/guides/compute/deploy/). But right now only `/` route is working for me locally and other routes throws an `Internal Server Error` .  
Digging in compute.geometry service logs brought me to the below error :  
`{"Timestamp":"2021-01-06T16:36:57.3681329+00:00","Level":"Error","MessageTemplate":"An exception occured while processing request","RenderedMessage":"An exception occured while processing request","Exception":"System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.\r\n at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()\r\n at compute.geometry.GrasshopperDefinition.ArchiveFromUrl(String url) in C:\\projects\\compute-rhino3d\\src\\compute.geometry\\GrasshopperDefinition.cs:line 620\r\n at compute.geometry.GrasshopperDefinition.FromUrl(String url, Boolean cache) in C:\\projects\\compute-rhino3d\\src\\compute.geometry\\GrasshopperDefinition.cs:line 33\r\n at compute.geometry.ResthopperEndpointsModule.Grasshopper(NancyContext ctx) in C:\\projects\\compute-rhino3d\\src\\compute.geometry\\ResthopperEndpoints.cs:line 64\r\n at Nancy.Routing.Route.<>c __DisplayClass4.<Wrap>b__ 3(Object parameters, CancellationToken context)"}`

Am I missing something during the setup?

You can’t really run a local AppServer with a remote compute instance. Compute is trying to retrieve a definition from your local computer which isn’t going to work. When debugging the AppServer on your computer, you should have an instance of compute running on your computer.
