After saving settings I don't get any new options and it stays on that page

[seitzbg]

After saving settings I don't get any new options and it stays on that page. Attempts to go to /admin redirects to /admin/settings.

Please advise!

I am using latest headscale/headscale-admin w/ traefik config from this Github.

Can you enable console debugging, click save, and then provide any relevant output from the development console? This usually happens if there's a CORS or some kind of communication issue to the backend API.

I have the same issue so hopefully its ok for me to chip in with my data. pasting it is a horrible mess so i've included a screenshot as well.

Ooops, forgot to update: I went on a journey via https://github.com/juanfont/headscale/issues/2160 and back to https://github.com/gurucomputing/headscale-ui?tab=readme-ov-file#errors-related-to-missing-bearer-prefix where I see "HS-UI has to be ran on the same subdomain as headscale or you need to configure CORS. Yes you need to use a reverse proxy to do this. Use a reverse proxy. If you are trying to use raw IPs and ports, it will not work.". So I suspect that will be the cause for me - I'm running headscale-admin through nginx but not headscale. I will try later and report back.

[goetzk]

I can confirm when running headscale and headscale-admin on the same domain through the same nginx instance, the settings dialogue instantly responds with "Authorized Expires in: 3 months from now" after clicking save. Previously there was nothing in the UI to show success or failure.

@GoodiesHQ You may change the README to reflect this change. As it shows, an example that may confuse others. For the record, this is what works for me now ...

services:
  headscale:
    labels:
      ...
      traefik.http.routers.headscale-https.rule: Host(`ts.example.com`)
    ...
  headscale-admin:
    labels:
      ...
      traefik.http.services.headscale-admin.loadbalancer.server.port: 80
      traefik.http.routers.headscale-admin.rule: "Host(`ts.example.com`) && PathPrefix(`/admin`)"
    ...
  headscale-ui:
    labels:
      ...
      traefik.http.services.headscale-ui.loadbalancer.server.port: 8080
      traefik.http.routers.headscale-ui.rule: "Host(`ts.example.com`) && PathPrefix(`/web`)"

This is my full docker-compose if it helps:

I also get this on the headscale compose container:
