Connecting from external lighttpd server

[FenrirWolfwood]

Hi, maybe not directly a dashy issue, but I'm quite lost.

I have dashy running on a server which I can already access through http://10.0.2.7:4000/ and also have a lighttpd server on the same network from which I want to access dashy.

I don't fully understand lighttpd so I just copied a working config file from a local service and made some adjustments.

server.modules += ( "mod_proxy" )

$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/dashy/" {
  proxy.header = (
    "map-host-request" => ( "-" => "10.0.2.7" ),
    "map-urlpath" => ( "/dashy" => "", "/dashy/" => "/" ),
    "https-remap" => "enable"
  )
  proxy.server = ( "" => ( ( "host" => "10.0.2.7", "port" => "4000") ) )
}

$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/dashy$" {
    url.redirect = ( "^/dashy$" => "/dashy/" )

When I try to access http://my-server/dashy it seems to connect, but doesn't pass from the "dashy loading..." page and I don't understand why.

Little help? I really don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I'm not super familiar with Lighttpd...

But if you could also share the error that you see in the browser console (here's how if you're unsure), then that might shine a bit of light on the issue. I guess it's a 404 from not being able to find the required resources, or a 401 if you've got auth.

Edit: actually, running from a sub-path (e.g. example.com/dashy instead of dashy.example.com) has had a few issues. Though not officially supported, I know some users have gotten it working, but the way Vue compiles made it really hard.

Not sure if this is what you are referring to, but I got to the browser inspection tools and found this difference.

Connecting directly	Connecting through Lighttpd
dashy:4:1 -->

Looks like lighttpd can redirect wright but after that doesn't know how to refresh correctly page contents? Doesn't find again the path maybe?

PS: Thanks a lot for your help!!
