Stuck on grey screen due to websocket error 500 #797
Description
code-serverversion: 1.1156-vsc1.33.1- OS Version: Ubuntu Server 16.04 on private VPS
Description
Installed code-server a couple days ago and finally went around to getting the reverse proxy working so I can use it on a semi-restricted network (network blocks direct IP:port access). Followed the docs for setting one up using Apache, and it somewhat works. The login page shows up and is usable, but once logged in, it sits on a grey screen repeatedly spitting out websocket connection to 'ws://coder.mydomain.com' failed: Error during websocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 500. Direct access over IP:port works, but the Apache reverse proxy only seems to partially work.
This happens in latest version of desktop chrome.
Steps to Reproduce
- Download the binary and run it on server with --allow-http
- Configure Apache according to docs
- Attempt to access via chrome
- Enter password and your at a grey screen, constantly getting a websocket 500.
Let me know if more details are needed, such as what my configs are currently set at.

I have the same issue.

Is there any support for alternatives (like long-polling / socket.io) rather than web sockets? Some environments don't support websockets.

Same issue, even whit HTTPS

This is likely caused by a misconfigured reverse proxy. I'm reviewing the reverse proxy documentation and rewriting parts that aren't clear or incorrect with the current version right now.

i was not using a reverse proxy in my case

@Mrgove10 Does anything appear in the code-server log or browser log that could be helpful?
