Hello, I did apt updates that switched from loolwsd to coolwsd. I’ve completed /etc/coolwsd/coolwsd.xml with the correct settings, the service is up and listening on port 9980, but when loading a file from Nextcloud, nothing happens anymore (or more precisely it seems it is loading Nextcloud in Next…

Hi, I’ve got the same problem with a 404 error code. Thanks for any help

Count me in as well. I’m running nginx with nextcloud (22.2.3) and my own collabora server. I’m not able to find any errors in my logs. I’ve looked through all the usual places only to find none appear to by involved. I changed the loolwsd entries in collabora.config to coolwsd. The server is runnin…

you must change the nginx config. Where you had ‘lool’, you must write ‘cool’, and where you have ‘loleaflet’ you must write ‘browser’. The correct URLs are visible in /hosting/discovery.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH joergmschulz. That works FANTASTICALLY well. One minor difference. The changes you listed are in collabora.config not nginx. I had already made the changes regarding “lool” to “cool” but not the “loleaflet” to “browser”. All is shiny once again. Again, thank you so much.

Hi, I still have a problem when I try to open a file. I still have a message notifying that the server has been disconnected. Can you give your settings in Apache or Nginx ? Thank you for help. Frederic

Hi, here are mine: #Config COLLABORA AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode SSLProxyEngine On SSLProxyVerify None SSLProxyCheckPeerCN Off SSLProxyCheckPeerName Off ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass /browser https://127.0.0.1:9980/browser retry=0 ProxyPassReverse /browser https://127.0.0.1:9980/b…

Thanks Ademma for your help. Unfortunely, it doesn’t work. I do use Nginx and I tried to adapt your solution, but I still get the same message “The server is disconnected”

What’s your log files look like? Any errors each time you attempt connection? Is the server running? Is there a proxy involved?

This helped me solve the problem last night’s update created for me. Thank you so much. How would I find out about such major changes in advance? Is there a newsletter or anything similar for sysadmins that would point out such changes as a new version is released?

Thank you very much

Indeed, I didn’t even think to look at my Apache conf!

All is working now
