Jitsi Meet Caddy Config Error!

Help
1

1. The problem I’m having:

I am facing issue with Jitsi Meet while trying to reverse proxy my Jitsi Meet Docker Installation with Caddy.

2. Error messages and/or full log output:

My Jitsi Meet setup is running in the following domain

meet.finitetouchstudio.com

If anyone tries to open up a new meeting it will show an error pointing out -

Error - You have been disconnected. You May want to check your network connection.

Now I am sure that I made a mistake in my caddy config and which I cannot seem to figure out. All of the Jitsi Meet Containers are running without any error.

3. Caddy version:

v2.8.4 h1
/1nl4V4bxBrYoSoab7rL9BMYNk=

4. How I installed and ran Caddy:

Installed Caddy from Caddy Repository via apt

a. System environment:

OS: Ubuntu in digital ocean droplet

Relevant services: Caddy, Docker

Reverse proxy services for FrankenWP, phpMyAdmin, Ghost, Portainer, Rocket.Chat, and Jitsi Meet.

b. Command:

sudo apt install -y debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring apt-transport-https
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/gpg.key' | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/caddy-stable-archive-keyring.gpg
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/debian.deb.txt' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/caddy-stable.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install caddy -y

c. Service/unit/compose file:

d. My complete Caddy config:

meet.finitetouchstudio.com {
# Proxy for /xmpp-websocket with WebSocket support
handle_path /xmpp-websocket* {
    reverse_proxy localhost:8111
}

# Proxy for /colibri-ws with WebSocket support
handle_path /colibri-ws* {
    reverse_proxy localhost:8222
}

# Default proxy for the root path
    reverse_proxy localhost:8000
}

5. Links to relevant resources:

Here is the link to installation guide that I am following (They have a demo Ngnix Config) -

A demo Nginx Config :

location /xmpp-websocket {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/xmpp-websocket;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}

location /colibri-ws {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/colibri-ws;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}

location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
}

Any feedback or suggestion is appreciated.

You might want handle, not handle_path, I assume. Using handle_path strips the matched path prefix from the request. I assume the upstream might expect the path to be kept (e.g. the nginx config strips it then re-adds it… redundant).

Thanks, it finally worked. Will try to post with my config in Showcase.
Thank you so much for your help.
