[NV-1244] 🐛 Bug Report: UI making requests to localhost when deployed on remote server

[SpencerMiller23]

📜 Description

The first issue is that the console hangs on the line reading Attaching to ws, api, web, widget, embed. In addition, when trying to sign up, I get a message reading "Network error".

👟 Reproduction steps

1. Setup a new remote server with the appropriate SSH keys (I'm using Digital Ocean)
2. Create a docker context for the remote server and change the current context to use it
3. Run docker-compose up
4. Note: I also changed all the variables in the .env file to use the IP of my server and the problem persisted

👍 Expected behavior

Start all the containers on the remote server

👎 Actual Behavior with Screenshots

I checked the Network tab of Chrome dev tools and I can see that the requests are being made to localhost and not my IP (even after updating the URLs in the .env file.

💻 Operating system

Linux

🤖 Node Version

v16.14.0

Hi @SpencerMiller23 Thanks for bringing up the topic. If I understand correctly you host the services remotely, to better understand I would like to raise a few points.

1. Can you verify that the .env file is located in the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file?
2. Could you try hosting up the docker environment locally and see if it works for you?

Hey, @djabarovgeorge thanks for getting back to me. I can confirm both that the .env file is located in the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file and that hosting the docker environment locally works as expected.

Hey thanks for looking it up. Strange the last thing i could suggest checking is to connect to the service and validate if environment variables were updated, however, I am not sure the issue is there.

@scopsy @davidsoderberg do you have any insights on the matter?
