coder + cloudflare tunnel (Linux debian)

As the title suggests, I've been trying to get this to work with no look. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. Issue: I can't seem to open coder in localhost:3000 if I could, I think the tunnel would work, since I'm pointing it to localhost:3000 🤔

Usually when you run coder server, the log will show you
http://localhost:port
http://localhost:port
, what your log looks like? I run coder server in tmux, usually with a script to assign env var, but you dont really need to. Is this the first time you use cloudflare tunnel?

Yup it shows http://localhost:3000 I can't access it tho through a browser which one thought Unless I use the coder.com proxy tunnel I assume you assign the var that is the 'CODER_ACCESS_URL'

You cant access with local browser? I dont know how you run it tho

Hmmm When I run other services that are running local then the tunnel works 🤔

So http://127.0.0.1:3000 isnt working too?

I only tried localhost:3000 but that should point to that tho 🤔

Likely a firewall issue if you cant access it with local browser

Ahhhh You might be onto something there 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 With what you said there then, it should be accessible? 🤔 Cus I would have thought so The coder tunnel should just hook onto it

That i dont know how they do it, but if you followed the installation process, it should work, else you gotta check with your system Possible that coder run something that trigger firewall or smth

I wouldn't trust Currently setting up a home server Then use the cloudflare tunnel to protect it etc I just find it weird 🤔 I use docker For a example I can just get phpmyadmin in docker Run in

I am not bald
I am not baldOP10mo ago

Ye Gotta expose port

I usually use docker compose for this stuff Because it easier to expose ports

I will apologise, I didn't mention I used docker 🤦‍♂️ Thought I did... rip But I will look into the docker compose Wish the coder doc mentioned it cus plonkers like me won't look like a tit 🤣

No i think it better to run coder locally
I am not bald
I am not baldOP10mo ago
Do you think so? 🤔

Because if you run coder in docker Later when you create env to code, it will be something like container inside container I cant remember what it's called tho, but lots of headache to deal with

Hmmm 🤔 Well with what you have said I think I'll do loclly Thanks for your help man You've been a gem 👍 Can give you some money to buy a beer 😏👍

Best to run with systemd, but I already run it with tmux and too lazy to reconfig it 🤣

This is not correct. We mount the host docker unix socket to the coder container so it can create workspace containers on the host So running Coder as a systemd service or inside a container will not have any effect on your docker workspaces.
