this fixes the issue:
https://www.traccar.org/forums/topic/nginx-proxy-working/
with following, not getting error: WebSocket connection to 'ws://mycarsample123.com:8090/api/socket' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake:
but browser still pops up 'websocket connection error', why?
location / {
# client_max_body_size 4M;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://traccar:8082/;
}
location /api/socket {
proxy_pass http://traccar:8082/api/socket;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
This worked for me, don't ask me to explain, not expert, just trial and error:
Traccar is working on "mydomain.com/gps" folder
location /gps/ {
add_header Cache-Control no-cache;
add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubdomains; $
add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
add_header X-Frame-Options "";
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_cookie_path /api /gps/api;
proxy_redirect http://localhost:8082/ /;
proxy_redirect ws:/localhost:8082/api/socket /api/socket;
proxy_pass http://localhost:8082/;
proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
proxy_send_timeout 86400s;
allow all; # Any IP can perform any other requests
}
I also had an issue with HTTP 400 Bad request errors for the websocket requests in nginx.
I run traccar on a subdomain but it would be the same config if it was run on a root domain.
location /api/socket {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8082/api/socket;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host:$server_port;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://localhost:8082/;
}
The order might be important but I'm not sure. It works for me now and I can see the websocket communication in the inspect session on chrome.
Hi,
I run traccar in a docker container, in the browser I always got:
I don't know why it goes back to 8090, actually mycarsample123.com:80 is a nginx:
any idea how to put traccar behind a nginx?
