Question

I just followed the "Quick Start" instructions here:

https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/devops-guide-docker

and then did the changes below:

but I got the error: "You have been disconnected".

The website loads and the HTTPS is working fine, though.

Any idea on what's going on and how can I fix this?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I have been facing the same issue with Jitsi Meet docker on RedHat installation.

Configuring two things in .env solved my issue

# Public URL for the web service (required)
PUBLIC_URL=<PUBLIC_URL_WITH_CERTS>

# IP address of the Docker host
# See the "Running behind NAT or on a LAN environment" section in the Handbook:
# https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/devops-guide-docker#running-behind-nat-or-on-a-lan-environment
DOCKER_HOST_ADDRESS=<YOUR_PRIVATE_IP>

Also, the PUBLIC_URL is the Reverse Proxy URL which has the certificate configured.

<MY_HOST>:443 --> <DOCKER_HOST>:8443

PRIVATE IP address in case you are using cloud-like AWS/Azure/GCP

Answer 2

I had same reconnect-message in infinite loop. Using "stable-5076" did not help me. But when I change .env-file in one string it helped me. I uncomment PUBLIC_URL string and write PRIVATE IP of computer where is jitsi installed.

Answer 3

While waiting for a new version :

image: jitsi/{web,prosody,jicofo,jvb}:stable-5076 work perfectly.

I had the same problems as you before using the version there
