istio routes issue for path’s

1

im using istio latest version 1.17my application is having
few routes

for example

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name:virtualservice
spec:
  hosts:
    - "*"
  gateways:
    - ingressgateway
  http:
  - match:
      - uri:
          prefix: "/"
      - uri:
          exact: "/api/users"
    route:
      - destination:
          host: stb-mvs-us

now when use ingress gateway

kubectl get svc -n istio-system -l istio=ingressgateway

I see the external ip and if I use it like:

http://6026651-81434690.eu-central-1.elb.fds.com

I see the index page and it works

but my application is exposing also routes like

"/api/users”

When I access it via browser I got error 503, what could be the reason?

http://6026651-81434690.eu-central-1.elb.fds.com/api/users

If I switch service (for testing) to using LoadBalancer I can see that the route "/api/users” is working…
Does my vs config is wrong?
