im trying to access guacamole from the internet and somehow i cant get it to work.

im using swag as a reverse proxy and with spacesinvaders tutorial i´ve enabled DNS authentication with cloudflare.

it works with other dockers but i cant get guacamole to work.

 

any Ideas?

 

there is a template in nginx proxy conf, for subdomain and subfolder, tried those ?

yes i did and it didnt work... but as i wrote before i already changed to DNS authentication and it still does not work. so it must be a guacamole configuration

Do you have other services you are passing through? If so, are they working?

well, there is not much in guacamole todo, works out of the box ...

 

the dns auth is just to get the certs and working subdomains, may try if your subdomain for guacamole works by just trying with another "working" service ? just to nail down

and in case you use name instead ip, beware name of docker must be lower case like guacamole, Guacamole wont work ...

well its working when i portforward the used port and use my IP... i can access it without any problems. 

and other dockers work with swag without any problems.  so i guess something is missing. but i cant change anything else in swag, thats why i thing it must be in guacamole it selfe...

then may also post your relevant config lines here

 

        set $upstream_app guacamole;

        set $upstream_port 8080;

and when you port forward, can you access guacanole by http://yourdomain.de:8080 ?

yes thats what i wrote. when i portforward my the guacamole port i can access it with my WAN IP + port...

and there is no additional config with DNS authentication or am i wrong?

Did you modify the dns-conf/cloudflare.ini with your correct information?

yes.. as i said other dockers work!

Is guacamole registered as a CNAME in Cloudflare?

no a record. exactly as other dockers...

@stFfn The error you’re getting has to do with DNS. It stands for “non-existent domain”. Somewhere it’s misconfigured. I would recommend trying with a CNAME and point to your primary A record. In fact, for my domain I use Cloudflare. All my hostnames are CNAME to my primary A record which gets updated when my IP changes. It is my only A record.

in my last post i said i have not a record.. i meant no cname... 

my domain has nothing behind it. if you go to my domain there is nothing to load. im only using subdomains.

i have a static internet IP so i dont need a dyndns that i could forward to with cname...

the guacamole.domain.de is definitly set on cloudflare and it has an a record to my Internet IP like all the other dockers that work.

every other docker works except for guacamole... thats why im asking here.

It’s definitely not an issue specific to this Docker container. Something is wrong with your DNS if that’s the error you’re getting.

but what could be wrong if the configuration is the same as all the other dockers?

I don’t know. It’s either that or you mistyped your domain name in the address bar. Only way Chrome would give you that specific error.

there is no typo because i always copy past when doing stuff like that to prevent mistakes.

 

and somehow im getting this error today...

That means your reverse proxy isn’t working. As far as I know the Docker DNS that Swag uses only works for a custom network type. Not for br0. On mine I had to point it to my Unraid server’s IP address and Guacamole port.

other dockers work fine. so the reverse Proxy (swag) is working.....  and yes you have to set a network for the docker to work. it even shows on the screenshot a few posts back (proxynet)...

To use proxynet the name needs to be all lowercase and use that in the proxy conf file.

 

That being said, I think you might have problems connecting to VM’s, if you use them, with Guacamole on proxynet. That’s the reason mine runs on br0.

You also won’t be able to connect directly to your Unraid server SSH with Guacamole on proxynet.

i have a windows VM that im connecting to and with that i have full connection to everything.

 

and guacamole runs locally without a problem on this network. and as i mentioned countless times before. ALL OTHER Dockers work with this network and the configuration of cloudflare and DNS auth...
